Story Behind the Song
I was sitting at home on a Saturday night with nothing to do, and I knew I had to write something, so I wrote this. I'm not depressed or anything (as this song might indicate)... I just needed an angry sounding song for a change.
Lyrics
I guess this could be another happy song,
About how nothing ever goes wrong,
I could keep on trying to make you smile,
But right now all that shit doesn't seem worthwhile.
Cuz I'm down on my knees again,
Trying to figure out the world,
Knocked out and crushed within (... i think I said something different)
All because of the girl.
I guess I could keep on tryin' to be,
The one who you all perceive me to be,
I think I'd like to stay how I am right now,
The only problem is that I don't know how.
Cuz I'm living a lie again,
Trying to make things right,
The down side has sucked me in,
And I'm trapped here tonight.
Don't test me out, don't try to help me,
Don't come around, don't worry about me,
I'll be here right here on my own,
Maybe it'll pass and let me come back home.
Now I'm back and I feel fine,
Back to my old state of mind,
I'm on my feet again,
Laughing all the time.
