Thought I'd be on my way getting paid
A million dollars to my name But here I am now
I pictured confidence that compliments
The list of my accomplishments Didn't work out
The life I thought
I'd have by now
I'm nowhere close
It's way too loud
Up in my head
I can't get out
I try again
I'm stuck somehow
Push and pull the tension is killing me
Self-imposed the pressure the misery
Holding on is holding me back
From what I want and what I don't have
I won't get out alive
I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
Caught up in unrealistic expectations
Hostage in negotiations and never winning
How can I fake it till I make it if I'm
Suffocating pulse is racing Never ending
The life I thought
I'd have by now
I'm nowhere close
It's way too loud
Up in my head
I can't get out
I try again
I'm stuck somehow
Push and pull the tension is killing me Self-imposed
The pressure the misery Holding on is holding me back
From what I want and what I don't have I won't get out alive
I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
Push and pull the tension is killing me
Yeah self-imposed pressure it's misery
