I went to the doctor for sake of my health
I was long past the point of diagnosing myself
She prescribed me some tablets to make me feel well
Said to get some fresh air and lay low for a while
When I spoke to my dad he wasn't sure what to say
Just gave me some money, offered somewhere to stay
I spent the money on things to chase the sorrow away
And learnt no amount of money keeps sorrow at bay
Why should I look after my heart
If it's already broken?
Face up to the pain that's been there from the start
You must be joking?
I tried to change how I was living but my efforts were in vain
I was constantly looking for someone to blame
Futile were my efforts to reignite the flame
Because for lack of a spark it didn't burn the same

Stasis, twiddling thumbs, I've become faceless
Because all that I've done is get wasted
I wasted my youth on the basis
That somehow I'd just get through
Paycheck when will you come to me
Paycheck, I have got mouths to feed ASAP
There's lifelines and time needing paid back
And I'm running out of line.
Where are you when I need someone to blame?
The casual love's the most torturous game.
You turn to me I run
Saying oh no it's happening again
Stages that I've been going through for ages
I can't seem to settle for basics
In my life I have so often tasted
Better than this.
