Intro (and after every chorus): G Em GEm When Im down, really down CDD7 Nothing matters, nothing does GEm I close my eyes and go to sleep CDD7 But I cant sleep, I cant sleep GCG Please hear my cry for help DG And save me from myself Junior high, I lost my mind I dont know why, its a terrible thing Since that day its been a struggle Trying to make sense out of scrambled eggs Please hear my cry for help And save me from myself I painted a bar and I never got paid In a town where everyone was unemployed I was locked in on Easter Day All I had to eat was a piece of bread When I got home my mother said, Youre a lazy bum and thats how come You suffer like that, and youll starve All your life, all your life Spoken just like it was a curse But it didnt really sound so bad I like to make things up Its the healthiest thing that I do But Im tired from being kidnapped By a dark wolf that would do me in Please hear my cry for help And save me from myself CDG Im just saying how I feel CDGC Maybe you could try to understand GCG Im a man who needs you (G Emin like intro) When Im down, really down Nothing matters, nothing does I close my eyes and go to sleep But I cant sleep, I cant sleep You can listen to these songs Have a good time and walk away But for me its not that easy I have to live these songs forever Please hear my cry for help And save me from myself
