Lyrics of 'Doin Just Fine' by Magnetic North

DOIN JUST FINE

Verse 1:
You ever feel like, that you amount to nothing?
that u tied down by something, forever bound to pain & suffering?
Well, that's how I feel, every night, in my room,
realizing how much time that I have wasted and consumed.

You ever feel like, that you're sitting on the edge?
and that at any given minute, you could be living with the dead?
Cuz you're sick of these vicious bitches that tear apart your heart
CUz you're sick of malicious dickheads that stab you in the dark.

You ever feel like, that it's your turn to be saved,
done with always being the one that has to serve as the slave.
tired of one sided relationships that hurt more to stay.
through with feeling persecuted due to the way you were raised.

You ever feel like, that you really don't belong?
outcasted by society, but you try to be strong.
Well I'm tired of trying, it's best if I continue lying
and reciting to myself... i'm doing just fine.

CHORUS:

said I'm, just fine,
said I'm doin just fine.
Keep telling yourself, D,
you doin just fine.

said I'm doin just fine,
said I'm doin just fine.
Keep lying to yourself, D,
you doin just fine.

said I'm, just fine,
said I'm, just fine.
Keep telling yourself, D,
you doin just fine.

said I'm doin just fine,
said I'm doin just fine
Keep lying to yourself, D,
you doin just fine.

Verse 2:
Though I'm, losing my mind, yo I'm, through with these lies,
no I, need to believe that I'm, good and just fine
cuz I'll do whatever it takes to pass by these bad times,
as long as I make it and last past these sad nights

I'll be alright, I'll just rot in front of the tv,
play my video games, and watch all my dVds.
this temporary bliss, all I reallY need.
self ignorance is a gift I know can please me

Cuz it's easy, to push back and block the pain
with distractions, the last friends I thought I'd make
just a classic case of repression and angst,
but it's a little bit different when it's more than just a phase.

And I'm not trying to say, or imply I have it worse,
cuz who am I to complain, and to keep whining how it hurts,
yo it's true we all got issues, so please don't sympathize,
besides, aint it best suited when everyone thinks u doing just fine?

CHORUS

Verse 3:
You ever feel like, that all you do is obssess?
You ever feel like, that you're consumed with regret?
You ever feel like, that you've lost all self respect?
You ever feel like, your dreams have cost you all your friends?
You ever feel like, you pretend to be someone else?
You ever feel like, your worst enemy is yourself?
You ever feel like, that no one gives you a try?
You ever fear life, so you keep living a lie...

Well in this, moment of weakness, I'm pleading for mercy,
I'm broken to pieces, I need to feel worthy.
So, many emotions that I got to just bury
but is it, better to just let it out and not worry,

and give in, cuz I feel like I've reached, my greatest limit,
yo I'm 23 and shit man, e-ver-y-day my waist is thinnin,
just too tired to eat, and just too wired to sleep,
I can't find my inner peace, becuz I'm blinded by these

tears beneath, trying to bleed, seep and escape from my eyes
instead I make em hard as ice, so my heart can never cry
like holding my breath, never releasing one sigh
I've been chasing too many waterfalls the water has run dry.

and I wonder why I've always tried to hide it,
stop striving to be a hero, D, swallow your pride in
follow what's inside and, stop fighting, cuz how many times can
you continue reciting, that you doing just fine man.

CHORUS

...said I'm doin just fine,
said I'm doin just fine.
Quit lying to yourself, D,
just cry this one time.
