Theme
A fiercely personal song addressing critics and judgmental people who constantly try to dictate how the narrator should live their life. The core question, **'Whose life is this anyway?'**, emphasizes the frustration and rebellion against unwanted advice, backstabbing, and external pressures that lead to an **'anxiety attack'**.
Lyrics
Ooh, you're just in time
Come get inside my head
Ooh, the war of words
You're underneath my skin
You hate the way I wear my clothes
You hate my friends and where we go
I see you in the shadows
You think you know what's best for me
You hate everything you see in me
Have you looked in a mirror?
Hey, just whose life is this anyway?
You tell me how to live but who asked you anyway?
Hey, just whose life is this anyway?
Cost so much more than a price
I ain't gonna pay
You only point out fault
An anxiety attack
You're a nay your mouth
You stab me in my back
You hate the way I wear my clothes
You hate my friends and where we go
I see you in the shadows
You think you know what's best for me
You hate everything you see in me
Have you looked in a mirror?
Hey, just whose life is this anyway?
You tell me how to live but who asked you anyway?
Hey, just whose life is this anyway?
Cost so much more than a price
I ain't gonna pay
Hey, just whose life is this anyway?
You tell me how to live but who asked you anyway?
Hey, just whose life is this anyway? (x3)
