Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't laugh, can't cry, can't live, can't die
Can't do anything anymore
Can't love, can't breathe, can't talk, can't sleep
But I can't seem to stay awake anymore
[PreChorus]
What a time to be alive
Such a waste of fucking time
[Chorus]
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
[Refrain]
Feels like I wanna jump, wanna scream, wanna run
Wanna fucking put a chainsaw through the wall, yeah
Feels like I'm living in a world where everybody's
All for none and none for all, yeah
[PreChorus]
What a time to be alive
Such a waste of fucking time
[Chorus]
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
[Bridge]
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
Such a waste of fucking time
[Refrain]
Feels like I wanna jump, wanna scream, wanna run
Wanna fucking put a chainsaw through the wall
Oh, give me something
Oh, give me something
[Chorus]
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
Oh, give me something to take the edge off
Something to kick the night off
Something to keep my mind off
This so called life
