It's Only Getting Worse

Story Behind The Song

Lyrics

It's beginning to feel like Im not wanted here
It's beginning to feel like I'm all alone
Wheels turning but I can't seem to get nowhere
Wheels turning but I lost sight of the road

And it feels like somethings got a hold on me
and it wont let go til I beg for mercy
Go ahead, go ahead and do what you want to me
'cause it feels like Im walking amongst the dead

Indecision's got me hanging by the throat
(it's taking me away)
Soul-Searching but you never leave your home
(afraid of what they'll say)
I'm taking what you got for what it's worth
and it's only getting worse

I get the feeling that no one understands me here
I get the feeling Im virtually unknown
Would you notice if suddenly I disappeared
Would you notice if suddenly I was gone
