Lyrics for One Thing At A Time

I don't know where to start When every thought at once Comes flooding 'til I'm underwater And I don't even know if I care Throw my hands up in the air Said, "I don't know why I even bother" Oh my God, just one thing at a time Don't get why it's so hard to find Some peace and quiet swimming in my mind And, oh my God, I'm ready for a change Over-analyse my dreams and pick apart the seams Always working from the same old pattern Soon as you pull one string, that's when everything begins A bigger mess unravelling Oh my God, just one thing at a time Don't get why it's so hard to find Some peace and quiet swimming in my mind And, oh my God, I'm ready for a change I'm ready for a change And I cry my eyes out, wasting water On a scenic drive, I'm flying down the middle of the highway Wrong way, the sun in my eyes I gotta fix this all somehow I'm ready for a change Ooh, ooh, ooh
