lyrics
In this box of redundancy I run right through the walls
Somehow maintaining my imperfection through it all
Tell me the truth, have you ever known me to learn from my mistakes?
Oh it's just a classic case
Of the blind leading the blind
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no don't you feel sad for me
Though I sometimes fall to fury 1-2-3-4
Oh and everyone's sick of the story that paints you in a pen
Blaming you over and over an over and over again
I believe I have muddied the waters so clear and so concise
Hoping no one could muster the courage
To stand up and think twice
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no don't you feel sad for me
Though I sometimes fall to fury 1-2-3-4
If I seem sentimental I may have been drowning it all in a drink
I come off as a come on but I guarantee that it's not what you think
Ask, I'll own up, I know I'm a sinner not a saint
Getting down like the devil
Oh cause sometimes hell can't wait
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no no no don't you feel sad for me
Even though I fall to fury 1-2-3-4
