I'm sick of all this fooling around And i haven't had much to do It's nothing to worry about Just a borderline case of manic depression I follow the same old line that i always have It don't work anymore I realize that the joke's on me, but i don't know why Could you turn those lights down? I know that i am just a carbon copy man And there isn't anything i understand I know that i am just a carbon copy man And i'm doing everything i think i can Everybody is out to get me I can tell by the way they look at me Just a glance from the back of the eye Going straight to the middle of what i'm feeling Did i mention the only time i'm by myself Is when i'm not alone now? Realizing that i've been had, but i don't know how Could you bring me another one? I believe in the benefit of doubt Well, i think, but i'm not so sure anymore I never had to protect myself From the sticks and the stones and the slings and the arrows Did i mention the only time i feel safe Is when you're not with me? Realizing that i just do not care anymore Could you turn that noise down?
