I don't make everyone happy
Well it's ok (it's ok)
And it's ok (it's ok)
I've been through this before
It's nothin' new (it's nothin' new)
It's nothin' new (it's nothin' new)

I don't know why
Everytime I wanna fly
Somebody always tries
To hold me down
Hold me down, yeah
I'm losing my faith
Every single time I try
No one is on my side
Don't let me drown
Let me drown

And don't worry about what you've done now
'Cause it's ok (it's ok)
It's ok (it's ok) yeah, yeah
It's a test to see how much you can take
It's nothin' new (it's nothin' new)
It's nothin' new (it's nothin' new)
It's nothin' new

I don't know why
Everytime I wanna fly
Somebody always tries
To hold me down
Hold me down, yeah
I'm losing my faith
Every single time I try
No one is on my side
Don't let me drown
Let me drown, yeah

I am drownin'
I am sinkin', yeah
I am drownin'
I am sinkin'
Why won't someone help me?
Why won't someone help me?

I don't know why
Everytime I wanna fly
Somebody always tries
To hold me down
Hold me down, yeah
I'm losing my faith
Every single time I try
No one is on my side
Don't let me drown
Let me drown
