I kinda miss some of my friends
I haven't seen them around
But that doesn't get me down
I try not to be misunderstood
You know sometimes it's hard to stay cool
And I know I should
But that doesn't get me down
But that doesn't get me down, my friend
I keep laughing at my enemies
And I know I can not foresee
What will happen to me
But that doesn't get me down
Sometimes we have to pretend
We haven't came to a dead end
(and) that's our best defense
But that doesn't get me down
But that doesn't get me down, my friend
You know when the night is over
That's when you discover
What is left and really matters
And who will be with you forever
I used to get stuck in my mind
It was hard to unwind
But that doesn't get me down
I'm trying to forgive and forget
I'm trying to ignore the regrets and quit cigarettes
But that doesn't get me down
But that doesn't get me down
Sometimes you only have one shot
And you have to go all in
You have to uncover your eyes
(but) sometimes you are so afraid
That you want to stop
You sit down and then
You wanna give up
