Lyrics and translation
Original
Every day I'm workin', workin', workin' on me.
Constantly I'm holdin', holdin', holdin' the beast down. Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave.
But, oh -hell, I'm shadowboxing myself. -I'm paranoid, I'm paralyzed.
I'm half alive behind the eyes. I'm tipsy-tippin' on razor edge.
Don't let the lines inside my head. My mother told me, "Let it go. You've done enough, just let it go.
" But every night I fantasize of kissin' you just one more time.
Painted nails and late night sails. Girls and boys all in hell.
Baby, touch me, let's get ugly. I don't think I'm ready to fall.
Every day I'm workin', workin', workin' on me. Constantly I'm holdin', holdin', holdin' the beast down.
I thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself. Every day I'm workin', workin', workin' on me.
I'm overhead cryin', cryin', cryin' the sea dry. I thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself.
I've been dancin', but I can't dance.
I'm in fashion, monkey on my back. Every second is a test, and I'll take it.
It's a pity, never been an academic. Painted nails and late night sails.
Girls and boys all in hell. Baby, touch me, let's get ugly.
I don't think I'm ready to fall. Every day I'm workin', workin', workin' on me.
Constantly I'm holdin', holdin', holdin' the beast down. I thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself.
Every day I'm workin', workin', workin' on me.
I'm overhead cryin', cryin', cryin' the sea dry. I thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself. Whoa.
Monkey on my back. Rough around.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself. Whoa.
Monkey on my back.
Rough around.
But, oh hell, I'm shadowboxing myself.
