Self Help Lyrics

All I have right now is right here
And right now

I want what I want, I always have
When no one cared about me, dreams were all I had
But nightmares grow and no one's listening
And idle thoughts'll do their thing
I still feel so much pain here from the past

And it cuts like a knife
It feels like a fight
To take back your life

Searching for the meaning
I'm living in these feelings
I'm ready for a reason to believe
Now I'm working on my insides
'Cause outside there's no reasoning
If anyone here'll tell me what it seems

All I have right now is right here

I felt too bad about myself
I never thought I was good enough for anybody else
I couldn't look love in the eye
I was too broken to try
Life was a cold song that taught me not to cry

And it cuts like a knife
It feels like a fight
To take back your life

Searching for the meaning
I'm living in these feelings
I'm ready for a reason to believe
Now I'm working on my insides
'Cause outside there's no reasoning
If anyone here'll tell me what it seems

How long I'm waiting
Feeling lost, frustrated
Locked out and I'm on my own
Caught in LA, got no place to go
How long should I stay here all alone

Searching for the meaning
I'm living in these feelings
I'm ready for a reason to believe
Now I'm working on my insides
'Cause outside there's no reasoning
If anyone here'll tell me what it seems

All I have right now is right here
