Why do I feel so alone in a crowd of people I know?
Is it wrong to feel so insecure and so unappealing?
Why walk around in disguise with a fake grin on my face?
What would it prove?
What would I gain?
I'd still feel so out of place

Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you

Midlife crisis at the age of 22, who knew?
I need some answers cross the street
And down the avenue I stopped
For the woman and paid five bucks
Got my palm read and she said:
"You shouldn't be smiling boy
This life line says you're already dead."

Just keep on moving forward never turning back
But with every step ahead I take they pull me two steps back
They pull me two steps back
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
