I got everything I ever wanted
But not the way that I expected
I looked everywhere that I was walking
But never really paid attention
I put in the work too much
But life’s more than an occupation
Pretty sure I lost touch
But it wasn’t from the medication
If only I knew it would take time
To laugh at jokes without a punchline
I took myself too seriously
To be someone else when I coulda' been me

‘Cause I took myself too seriously

‘Cause I took myself too seriously

Stuck to the script I wrote
The funny part was thinking I could make it on my own
I put on quite a show
Stuck to the script I wrote
The funny part was thinking I could make it on my own
I took myself too seriously
To be someone else when I coulda' been me
My heart dwelled on the littlest things
‘Cause I took myself too seriously
My heart dwelled on the littlest things
‘Cause I took myself too seriously

‘Seriously’ was the most challenging song that i’ve ever written.
