I wanna wake up sober
See what the sunrise means to me
'Cause I've been getting colder
And nothing means anything
I wanna really hold ya
And feel the ground beneath my feet
'Cause when it's all all over
Don't wanna miss anything

I put enough cigarettes on my bed
Only friends gather up in my head
When you hit bottom, only place to go is up

When I found me, I was smiling
And through the crying, I finally feel good
When I broke free from the old me
I was singing, "I finally feel good"

I was getting closer
But I was getting in my way
We're only getting older
I keep on making the same mistakes
Self-inflicted torture
It no longer gets me high
But finally I want to
Follow my own lullaby

Trying to remember what my mother said
Middle finger up to my twisted head
When you hit bottom, only place to go is up

When I found me, I was smiling
And through the crying, I finally feel good
When I broke free from the old me
I was singing, "I finally feel good," oh-oh

(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) A duplicate of my own skin
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) It finally feels like home, yeah
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) I can't tell if myself, yeah
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) You don't have to be alone

When I found me (will I?)
I was smiling (I was smiling, yeah)
And through the crying (and through the crying)
I finally feel good (I finally feel)
When I broke free (when I broke free, broke free)
From the old me (from the old me, old me)
I was singing (yeah, yeah)
"I finally feel good" (I finally feel good, baby)

(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) Oh, I finally feel good, baby
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) Oh, I finally feel good, baby
Oh, I finally feel good, baby
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) Oh, I finally feel good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Ha-ah-ah, ha-ah-ah) 
Ooh
