lyrics

What am I doing wrong?
Focus on the distraction
What if my will is gone?
Focus on the distraction
What's after 21?
Focus on the distraction
What if I wait too long?
Focus on the distraction

Why can't we get along?
Focus on the distraction
Why can't I write a song?
Focus on the distraction
Why is my money gone?
Focus on the distraction
Why am I so withdrawn?
Focus on the distraction.

100 years away
40 down the drain
Another fades away
Here comes yesterday
Now I'm laying down
Now I'll pace around
Now I'll make some shame
Play any game

Shiny object
New pet project
New year counting down
You need a new distraction

Where's my motivation?
Where's my satisfaction?
Confidence is gone
Focus on the distraction

Is this the right someone?
Are they moving on?
Are we still having fun?
How are the wheels still on?
Am I just a dumb pawn?
How do you carry on?
Where's the uh, attraction?
Focus on the distraction

365, the same
12 months down the drain
Another week in vain
Another fruitless day
Now I'm getting down
Now I'm getting pissed
Now I think I missed
What I could have hit

What am i doing wrong
Where has my money gone
You do the subtraction
Focus on the distraction

What am I doing wrong?
Why cant I write a song?
A tooth needing extraction
Focus on the distraction

What am i doing wrong?
Focus on the distraction
Where does this trash come from?
Focus on the distraction
Where's my motivation?
Focus on the distraction
Just need to get traction
Focus on the distraction

What am I doing wrong?
Focus on the distraction
What if my will is gone?
Focus on the distraction
What's after 31?
Focus on the distraction
What if I wait too long?
Focus on the distraction

Why can't we get along?
Focus on the distraction
Why can't I write a song?
Focus on the distraction
Why is my money gone?
Focus on the distraction
Why am I so withdrawn?
Focus on the distraction.

Focus on the distraction

I need that easy action

Itching and scratching

Lost to the abstraction

Focus on the distraction
