How I Got This Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sweep it under the rug
Hurt the ones that you love
I can't remember when or where
Sit alone with the one
Who shines her light on the sun
A darker day now I have lost my way
You think I've changed, but I'm the same
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
Breaking all of the rules
Act like some kind of fool
I'm on my own and you will never understand
Building the walls around me
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
Enough about me
I've tried so hard
Stuck in a hard place, let down your guard
'nd soak in summer daze
Trippin' with craze I close my eyes
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
I got this way
