D#m                                 C#
Finished with my woman, 'cause she couldn't help me
F#   C#  D#m
With my mind
People think I'm insane because I am frowning
All the time

All day long, I think of things, but nothing seems
To satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something
To pacify

D#m
Can you help me
C#          D#m
Occupy my brain
    C#
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life
That I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness
I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh
And I will cry
Happiness, I cannot feel and love, to me
Is so unreal

And so, as you hear these words telling you now
Of my state
I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could
But it's too late
