trying to lose my mind lyrics

I talk with my friend over the phone
I'm scared to say things I don't know and be wrong
And words always sound much better
Coming out of someone else
But put it in a song
And I know that we can get along

I'm trying to lose, to lose my mind
When it's gone I'll tell you where it went
About the extent of its stay
Strum a few chords and use my voice
And make it a song
With the hopes that you will play along, along

And look into once before me
Some say I waste my time
But normal life seems so boring
So I'm trying to lose my mind

Well I met a girl, she didn't like my song
She told me that old bands are better
She played me her favorite records
This is how I repaid her
I said, ?It's no pain to some
But I hope that you can sing along, along?

And look into once before me
And some say I waste my time
But normal life seems so boring
So I'm trying to lose my mind
