[Verse 1]

With so much bitterness inside

When I'm alone, it shakes me dry

It rings me out until I'm empty

A hollow place I've grown to like

[Chorus]

You know that I try every day, but I run away to

The only place I can escape my mind when I can't lose

You know that I try every day, but I'm still the same fool

I never think twice when I criticize everything I do

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

When the sun comes out, don't let it show

A shady place I call my home

And if my garden grows forever

I'd like to kill the weeds I've sown

[Chorus]

You know that I try every day, but I run away to

The only place I can escape my mind when I can't lose

You know that I try every day, but I'm still the same fool

I never think twice when I criticize everything I do

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

And if I ever let me go

I think I'll finally feel at home

Without the looming of a hawk

Looking for prey in every thought

I'm not as ugly as I think

I don't sound awful when I sing

I'm not as ugly as I think

I'm not as ugly

[Chorus]

You know that I try every day, but I run away to

The only place I can escape my mind when I can't lose

You know that I try every day, but I'm still the same fool

I never think twice when I criticize everything I do

[Outro]

Thing I do

Thing I do

Thing I do

Everything I do
