NERVOUS Lyrics by Daughtry

SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM (PART ONE)

2024

[Intro]
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?

[Verse 1]
After all this time, I should feel better now
Trying to get above the noise that drowns me out
Skin is crawling, hands are shaking
Can't breathe, my heart is racing
Feels like my shadow's chasing me

[Chorus]
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest
'Cause everything is fucked
Why am I so nervous?

[Verse 2]
Every moment feels like I'm under attack
Waiting for the worst to stab me in the back
Blood is racing through my veins
I'm waiting for my world to change
Before it changes me

[Chorus]
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest
'Cause everything is fucked

[Bridge]
Everything is upside-down and out of reach
Nothing here is what it seems
Will I ever be the same? (Never be the same)
No, I'll never be the same

[Chorus]
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so numb?
Trying to find my purpose
Am I the only one?
Why am I so anxious?
Why am I so stuck?
I'm just being honest
'Cause everything is, everything is fucked

[Outro]
(Oh, ooh)
Why am I so nervous?
Why am I so nervous?
