[Verse 1]
Woke up inside myself this morning
Uncertainty all around
Got straight and turned on to some happiness
Then I lay back down
All there was around
Nothing left but ashes and the smell

[Verse 2]
Went down to the corner drug store
Pain was more than I could bear
They told me that I was illegal
I told them I don't care
Let them stand and stare
Nothin' left but old bones and the smell

[Bridge]
I know I can't go on
I just can't stand the pain, can't stand the pain
I know I just can't stand
Guess I'll go insane, go insane

[Verse 3]
Guess I was born to be mistreated
Contentment seems too hard to find
Searchin' for some understanding
Then I lost my mind
Left it far behind
Nothing left but memories and the smell
