Shot Below the Belt

Don't you understand me?
 Don't you understand me?
 This cloud over my head is not okay
 Is not okay
 There are things that I need to get done, need to get done
 There are things that I need to get done, need to get done
 And it doesn't give you permission
 To take a shot below the belt
 What a bittersweet symphony life is
 But I wouldn't have it any other way
 We have such little time, let's not spend it in anger
 In anger, in anger
 I am in the deep end and I can't find air
 I can't find air
 I'm throwing punches with a blindfold on
 I'm throwing punches with a blindfold on
 I'm throwing punches with a blindfold on
 I'm throwing punches with a blindfold on
 Wake up
 Wake up
 Wake up
 Wake up
 Because I may just brake suddenly
 I may just brake suddenly
 I may just brake suddenly
 I may just brake
 I would rather not explode, that's your job
 I am stuck in between two worlds
 In a maze of dreams and thoughts
 What a bittersweet symphony life is
 But I wouldn't have it any other way
 Have it any other way
