You see my life is rather simple   I'm just another face   And all your textbooks, all you know   Will soon construct a case      Warped emotions like a river   Everywhere a bend   And what we cannot hold together   We try to keep within      Listen doctor you cannot help me   The cure that's in a jar   All the needless, all the pills   I think it's gone too far      Now the pain is really blinding   I'm crawling up the wall   Try to hold on, try to stop it   I think I've lost it all      Can't you see just where the troubles   All are in my head   Iron bars that keep me safe   While strapped here on this bed      You've poked and probed and podded me   So often times I've cried   Now I pray on bended knee   God just let me die      Listen doctor you cannot help me   The cure that's in a jar   All the needless, all the pills   I think it's gone too far      Now the pain is really blinding   I'm crawling up the wall   Try to hold on, try to stop it   I think it's gone too far      Count the ceiling tiles above   As you wheel me down the hall   Another treatment once a week   I'm losing all recall      Warped emotions like a river   Everywhere a bend   And what we cannot hold together   We try to keep within      Listen doctor you cannot help me   The cure that's in a jar   All the needless, all the pills   I think it's gone too far      Now the pain is really blinding   I'm crawling up the wall   Try to hold on, try to stop it   I think I've lost it all      I think I've lost it all   I think I've lost it all   I think I've lost it all   I think I've lost it all   I think I've lost it all   I think I've lost it all
