I'm livin' in a world that won't stop pullin' on me   I'm not complaining but it's true   It's like I owe my time to everyone else   'Cause that's all I seem to do      You might not notice but I need a good friend   Someone to talk to when I'm down, down, down   There's so much on my mind that I wanna get out   But there's no one around      Well sometimes I can't help thinkin', oh what about me?   Some days go by that I don't even see   Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free   Oh is this the way it's always gonna be, what about me?      Well I'm dreamin' I'm on a highway with the windows down   I'm burnin' up the road at my own speed   But I'm stuck here goin' nowhere in this traffic jam   And there's a woman with her kids in the car next to me   And I swear she's singin'      Sometimes I can't help thinkin', oh what about me?   Some days go by that I don't even see   Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free   Is this the way it's always gonna be, hey, what about me?      Oh, sometimes I can't help thinkin', oh what about me?   Some days go by that I don't even see   I'm doing everything right and I can't break free   Oh is this the way it's always gonna be, what about me?   Ooo what about me, baby?   Hey what about me?
