Artist: Set It Off
Track: Why Worry

Lyrics
This sinking feeling sets,
It feels just like a hole inside your chest
I know you're thinking,
No, no, no, no, it is easier said than done,
But please let me attest
I know it's hard
You're feeling like you're trapped,
But that's how you react,
When you cannot see the light
But try and see the light
I'm tellin' you,
No, no, no, no,
You're the only one
Standing in your way,
Just take a breath, relax, and tell me...

Why?
Please tell me why do we worry?
Why?
Why do we worry at all?
Why?
Just tell me why do we worry?
When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?

Why do we insist,
On crossing bridges that do not exist?
Let's take these issues
Step by step by step, to work it out,
Day by day by day we're falling down,
But life goes on
I've got some questions,
Are you sick of feelin' sorry?
Uh huh,
And people sayin' not to worry?
Uh huh,
Sick of hearing this hakuna matata motto,
From people who won the lotto,
We're not that lucky
Have you noticed that you're breathing?
Uh huh,
Look around and count your blessings,
Uh huh,
So when you're sick of all this stressin' and guessin'
I'm suggestin' you turn this up and let them hear you sing it

Chin up, quit actin' like you're half dead
Tears can only half fill how you're feelin'
Don't worry, be happy baby
Stand up, life is too damn short,
That clock is ticking
Man up, if ya feel me,
Everybody sing it
