lyrics

They wonder why I hang my head,
Why I spend so much time in my bed,
I shouldn't complain, I'm not in pain and my body's been fed.

They tell me I've got it good,
That maybe I'm just a little misunderstood,
But, that's okay, 'cause they found a way to make me act how I should.

I need to clear my head of all this negative thinking,
I need to find a way to behave that will keep me happy without drinking,
But, I'm not without the dark.

They tell me to settle down,
Find one thing and put my feet on the ground,
But, for now they measure my worth by the labour I exert.

And no they don't ask why I'm numb inside,
Why it's so difficult to just get by,
As long as everything is smooth sailing and I avert my eyes from looking around,
So they can tell me.

I need to clear my head of all this negative thinking,
I need to find a way to behave that will keep me happy without drinking,
But, I'm not without the dark.
