Lyrics for Burning Out

I've been struggling to breath today Empty lungs but words to say I medicate to numb the pain And hope that I don't fade away In case you heard I'm doing better now It's only 'cos I've learned to hide away I was hoping that tonight we could pretend like we're only seventeen Without problems only dreams I've been trying but it's hard for me I'm finding out that it's only getting harder I find it tough cos my body's getting older I thought by now there'd be something I'd be proud of Drowning in doubt, that's all I ever do now I guess I'm burning out Can someone show me how Can someone show me I feel so worthless, it's getting to me Everyday is just another dose of apathy But if you could see what is happening Maybe you might feel some sympathy I'm finding out that it's only getting harder I find it tough cos my body's getting older I thought by now there'd be something I'd be proud of Drowning in doubt, that's all I ever do now I guess I'm burning out Can someone show me how Can someone show me I thought of giving up Cos all I give is not enough Will I falter at the top Will anybody give a fuck Is this my life lesson To live in apprehension I'm finding out that it's only getting harder I find it tough cos my body's getting older I thought by now there'd be something I'd be proud of Drowning in doubt, that's all I ever do now I guess I'm burning out Can someone show me how Can someone show me
