Barely Hanging On Lyrics

I used to be so sensible on my own
Now I'm so sensitive, it's a joke
I'm getting by on decibels like a drug
And greet every brand new day with a shrug

I'm barely hanging on
Barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on

I used to be so comfortable in a suit
Almost presentable next to you
I used to be so confident in a crowd
Now I can't say my own name aloud

Barely hanging on
She's barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on

And now I guess you're wondering why
We never could see eye to eye, oh but never mind
And now I guess it's hard to see
What has gotten into me, oh but never mind
Oh but never mind, oh but never mind

I'm barely hanging on
Yes, I'm barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on
I'm barely hanging on, yeah

Barely hanging on
Barely hanging on
