Intro (upstrokes)
Inside my mind there is a man, he s always bragging about his plans
he says he s never gonna leave (I m never gonna leave you alone)
Despite my efforts to be free I m his, and always I will be
A day late a dollar short singing woah, woe is me
And I know I have to but I don t know how
And I know that he knows I can do without
And he knows that I need it so bad,
but then I realize it s clear that he knows that
In the end, he ll never know what hides inside my..
Heaad, I don t wanna seem ungrateful
I don t wanna seem like I don t need anyone s help
to get me through these rainy days, to push through the haze
so I can get on my feet and I can stand up and do what it takes
(rest of the song is the same progressions repeated, the rest of the lyrics are)
You heard his story now hear mine, I live inside a coward s mind
Where every dream I dream gets shot down all of the time
If I don t jump into the fray he ll mope around and waste the day
He s like a ton of concrete tied to me, tied around my waist
And he knows he has to but he doesn t know how
and he knows that I know he can do without
and I know that he needs it so bad,
but then I realize it s clear that he knows that
in the end, I ll never know what hides inside his..
Head, I don t wanna seem ungrateful
I don t wanna seem like I don t need anyone s help
to get me through these rainy days, to push through the haze
so I can get on my feet and I can stand up and do what it takes
