What About Me

I'm livin' in a world that won't stop pullin' on me

I'm not complainin', 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', "What about me?"

Some days go by that I don't even see

Yeah, I'm doin' 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', "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', "What about me?"

Some days go by that I don't even see

I'm doin' everything right, and I can't break free

Oh, is this the way it's always gonna be?

What about me?

Ooh, what about me?

Hey, what about me?
