paid in quarters - popPUNK Lyrics

I'm trying to stop apologizing for existing
But every time i open my mouth
I wish i'd kept it shut
Gotta let you know that i know that i'm not losing my mind
Cause i worry the way i speak
Makes it seem like i'm feeling low
Everything is falling
Down around me but i'm
Still not ready to say
I wasted all my time
I'm still standing, got this
Optimism got a
New direction, so much time
Go ahead and kick me while i'm down
I still won't show my teeth
I know something's waiting for me
To make it out in on piece
And i'll be damned if i
Let it down so easily
I don't think you understand how it feels to feel like
Everyone moved on and left you
Watching from behind
But they're still trying to make you feel like you've got potential
At least most of them are
Most of the time
I don't think they're lying
I think they're just trying
To make me feel better
About my hand in life
I'm still standing
Got some optimism
Got a new direction, so much time
Go go ahead and kick me while i'm down
I still won't show my teeth
I know something's waiting for me
To make it out in one piece
And i'll be damned if i let it down so easily
No one ever makes it through on their first try
Saying it out loud makes it seem a little more all right
No one ever makes it through on their first try
Saying it out loud makes it seem a little more all right
Go ahead and kick me while i'm down
I still won't show my teeth
I know something's waiting for me
To make it out in one piece
And i'll be damned if i let it down for this
