lyrics

I get my tension in my shoulders
I get so sore in my brain
So some of that you won't be able to just massage away
After 21 years the pills still won't take
Maybe after 38 years this is just my time to break

Give me a televised life so my words can always be right
It costs less to hire a writer than to see a shrink or a doctor
But I can barely memorize all my stupid rhyming lines
How could anyone expect me to say the right thing every day of my whole life?

This is what a life looks like when you've been scared for 24 years
This is how your life looks when everything you do is directed by fear

Well You've looked to me for answers and you've turned to me for love
But I'm afraid of questions and power makes me run
