"Asking For A Friend" lyrics

There's a light every night that lives inside my head
It's not right, but it fights back to hold me down to an empty bed
I can't help but feel if I go outside, I might just die
It's all so surreal, everything's just fine, but in my mind

I just got hit by a truck
Guess I'm just shit out of luck again
It's got me scared to death
Jesus Christ, what the fuck?
Why can't this life let me catch my breath?
I'm asking for a friend

Chased a high for a life that I want for us
Instead of all this goddamn worry in my head
I say I'm doing fine
It's an act
I'm lying to myself again
Forget the truth, I'd rather play pretend

I just got hit by a truck
Guess I'm just shit out of luck again
It's got me scared to death
Jesus Christ, what the fuck?
Why can't this life let me catch my breath?
I'm asking for a friend

What I really meant to say is that I know
One day we'll be okay, it just takes some time before we realize
It's not that everything sucks
You're the one driving your luck, my friend
I hope you understand

I just got hit by a truck
Guess I'm just shit out of luck again
It's got me scared to death
Jesus Christ, what the fuck?
Why can't this life let me catch my breath?
Can't catch my breath
I just got hit by a truck
Guess I'm just shit out of luck again
It's got me scared to death
Jesus Christ, what the fuck?
Why can't this life let me catch my breath?
I'm asking for a friend

What I really mean to say is that I know
One day we'll be okay
I think you're doing fine
It just takes some time
