[Verse 1]
You made me feel like I'm OK, I could be happy
Now I can sit, not run away, stupidly laughing
Wipe out all self-pity, it's slowing me down
Turn off feeling pretty, dressing up, dressing down

[Verse 2]
I walk around the city, out of my way, looking for something
I've got all that I need to save my day, so why'm I running?

[Chorus]
You said I should get professional help, it always makes me cry
I know I'm just an amateur, but I've gotta try

[Verse 3]
I had a birthday party and it was packed, got friends who love me
We hung a disco ball up and watched the lights, they were so lovely

[Chorus]
You said I should get professional help, it always makes me cry
I know I'm just an amateur, but I've gotta try
I've gotta try

[Bridge]
When exactly are we?
I get the decades mixed up
I like the streets when they're empty
I can make the rest up
I can make the rest up
I can make the rest up
[Verse 2]
I walk around the city, out of my way, looking for something
I've got all that I need to save my day, so why'm I running?

[Chorus]
You said I should get professional help, it always makes me cry
I know I'm just an amateur, but I've gotta try

[Bridge 2]
Every day is New Year's Eve
Every night is the last night
Every day is New Year's Eve
Every time is the last time

[Chorus]
You said I should get professional help, it always makes me cry
I know I'm just an amateur, but I've gotta try
I've gotta try
