"Get By" lyrics

How can I even try
When I know that the world is out to get me
Can't you see
When I try to survive
I step closer to the guide that's just killing me
Can't you see

At 10 A.M. I wake up late
I play with thoughts of yesterday
I try to slow my mind a bit
But I don't even give a shit

I feel I do this all the time
It's just another stupid lie
I tell myself to past the time
And try to find a reason why

And when I make it to my window
I see the world pass me by
I ask myself what I'm doing here
To find a reason why
Why

How can I even try
When I know that the world is out to get me
Can't you see
When I try to survive
I step closer to the guide that's just killing me
Can't you see

So tell me why
I gotta live with this life
So tell me why
Don't wanna live with this life

So I stand up like I really care
And say just what you wanna hear
Maybe then you'll go away
But you still come another day

Just give me time to think a bit
But all I think is crazy shit
Should I just call and check myself
Well out of here 'cause I need help

But how can it get better
When it's not getting better now
How can I be happy later
When I can't be happy now
Now

How can I even try
I don't even know what's right
How can I even try
When I don't even know what's right

How can I even try
When I know that the world is out to get me
Can't you see
When I try to survive
I step closer to the guide that's just killing me
Can't you see

So tell me why
I gotta live with this life
So tell me why
Don't wanna live with this life
So tell me why
