Will you forgive me if I'm comin' off a little bit obtuse? 00:01
Well, it's been a minute now since I have had to tell the truth 00:04
I know 00:10
I can't 00:13
I won't 00:16
Suppose I thought that, by this moment, I would have it figured out 00:20
But, instead, I tend to spend my days consumed by seeds of doubt 00:26
I know 00:30
I can't 00:32
I won't 00:35
Oh, darlin', it goes on and on and on 00:38
Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holdin' on 00:43
End of my tether and I know it won't be long 00:46
It won't be long 'til it's gone 00:50
So here's to my beautiful life 00:59
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied 01:05
No sense of self, but self-obsessed 01:08
I'm always trapped inside my - head 01:14
On and on and on, on and on and on 01:17
On and on and on, on and on and on 01:21
Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow 01:26
If you were wonderin' how I'm feelin' now" 01:32
I try to tell myself my best days are the ones that lie ahead 01:37
But I'm always lookin' back on things I wish I'd never said 01:43
I know 01:47
I can't 01:49
I won't 01:52
Oh, darlin', it goes on and on and on 01:56
Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holdin' on 02:00
End of my tether and I know it won't be long 02:04
It won't be long 'til it's gone 02:08
So here's to my beautiful life 02:13
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied 02:19
No sense of self, but self-obsessed 02:23
I'm always trapped inside my - head 02:28
On and on and on, on and on and on 02:32
On and on and on, on and on and on 02:36
Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow 02:41
If you were wonderin' how I'm feelin' now" 02:47
I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah 02:54
But I'll get there 02:58
No, I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah 03:00
But I'll get there 03:06
So here's to my beautiful life 03:09
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied 03:15
No sense of self, but self-obsessed 03:19
I'm always trapped inside my - head 03:24
On and on and on, on and on and on 03:28
On and on and on, on and on and on 03:32

[English]
Will you forgive me if I'm comin' off a little bit obtuse?
Well, it's been a minute now since I have had to tell the truth
I know
I can't
I won't
Suppose I thought that, by this moment, I would have it figured out
But, instead, I tend to spend my days consumed by seeds of doubt
I know
I can't
I won't
Oh, darlin', it goes on and on and on
Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holdin' on
End of my tether and I know it won't be long
It won't be long 'til it's gone
So here's to my beautiful life
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied
No sense of self, but self-obsessed
I'm always trapped inside my - head
On and on and on, on and on and on
On and on and on, on and on and on
Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
If you were wonderin' how I'm feelin' now"
I try to tell myself my best days are the ones that lie ahead
But I'm always lookin' back on things I wish I'd never said
I know
I can't
I won't
Oh, darlin', it goes on and on and on
Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holdin' on
End of my tether and I know it won't be long
It won't be long 'til it's gone
So here's to my beautiful life
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied
No sense of self, but self-obsessed
I'm always trapped inside my - head
On and on and on, on and on and on
On and on and on, on and on and on
Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
If you were wonderin' how I'm feelin' now"
I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah
But I'll get there
No, I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah
But I'll get there
So here's to my beautiful life
That seems to leave me so unsatisfied
No sense of self, but self-obsessed
I'm always trapped inside my - head
On and on and on, on and on and on
On and on and on, on and on and on
Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
If you were wonderin' how I'm feelin' now"
