Story of my life

Sometimes I'll gravitate to a song because of the music, sometimes the mood of a piece--but sometimes it's just because a fragment of the lyrics means something significant to me. Rarely, though, do *all* the lyrics hit me--so it makes me blink a bit to see a song that from beginning to end describes what I'm feeling and dealing with.

Out Of My Depth
Everclear
(From the album "Songs From An American Movie Volume 2: Good Time For A Bad Attitude")

Out of my depth
Lost in the air
Falling faster
Like a broken elevator

Out of my depth
Lost in the dark
Waiting for that other shoe
To come down hard

I cannot communicate
Like I wish I could
I do not deal with my problems
Like I know I should

I am out of my depth
I am out of my league
Watching everything...
Just slip away from me

Something bad is going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise

I am in over my head
I am in too deep here
Over my head
I guess I should keep my opinions to myself
I guess I am out of my depth

Out of my depth
Right from the start
I feel like I was born
With an invisible heart
Out of my depth
Seems like everyday
I can't find the words
To make the good things come my way

Yes, I feel like I am faking it
I feel like I am wrong
I feel like I'm a guest
...like I just do not belong

I am out of my depth
Every single day
I just cannot find the words
To make my monsters go away

Something bad is going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise

I am in too deep here
Over my head
Yes, I am in too deep here
Over my head
I should seek some professional help
Because I'm out of my depth
Yes, I am out of my depth
And I am slowly going out of my mind

Oh, go away
Make them go away
Someday I know
I will make them go away
Make them go away
Make them go away
Someday I know...I will
Make my monsters go away

I am in over my head
I should seek some professional help
I should keep my opinions to myself
I guess I'm out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my...

I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth

I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
Yes, I am slowly going out of my mind
