Myself

(album: The Fourth World - 1997)

I have told
all of my enemies
very politely
to go home

I have seen
all of your remedies
now won't you let me please
go home

I can't find anything
to be sad about
they say I'm doomed
but I feel fine

I have tried
so very hard as hell
to stay away from hell
and live upstairs

But when I see
all of your remedies
I try quite desperately
to go home

I can't find anything
to be sad about
They say I'm doomed
but I feel fine

But if I'm sitting here lonely
with no one to hold me
at lease I'll have my health
I'm trying to control myself

I have told
all of my enemies
very politely
to go home

I have seen
all of your remedies
now won't you let me please
go home
I've been acting irresponsibly
but what could possibly
go wrong
I have choked
on all your remedies
now won't you let me please
go home

But if I'm sitting here lonely
with no one to hold me
at least I'll have my health
I'm trying to control myself
I'm trying to control
myself!
