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 want to get out 
But there's no one around 
 
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 
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 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 
Hey what about me
