Sinking

The bills are getting paid
And all of them on time
Every day the sun keeps rising
Up into the sky
But every night
There’s a cold, cold stone
Where my heart should be
It’s put away
And locked up tight
I’ve thrown away the key
Oh but it’s hard
Yeah, it’s so hard
To say what I mean to say
Push it down and block it out
Hope it all just goes away
Who am I to complain?
People got it worse than me
No food to eat, no place to sleep
Living in poverty
I’m just some girl
Who’s got it all
That’s what they like to think
But I’ve just learned
To bail it out
Quick enough not to sink
Oh, I am sinking
Oh and it’s hard
Yeah it’s so hard
To trust anyone out there
‘Cause everybody’s hurting too
Too preoccupied to care
Oh lord, oh lord
I am sinking
Oh lord, oh lord
I am sinking
Oh lord, oh lord
I am sinking
Oh lord, oh lord
I am sinking
