Desperation Made A Fool Of Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm sick, and I've felt this way for some time now

I'm so fed up with the daily grind

I'm trying to find relief

If you feel this way then clap your hands

Ever thought this was a backward land?

What is making people mean?

A bad scene

Now that I've got my motives straight and I am thinking clearly

I'll sneak up to your window with my senses open wide

I'm tired, on my shoulders weighing heavily

Is the full responsibility for your troubles and your charms

Your betrayal goes around with me

Like the sword in some old tragedy

It is sticking in my back

People laugh

Now that I've got my motives straight and I am thinking clearly

I'll sneak up to your window with my senses open wide

I never really thought it would be like this

I know it's kind of hard but I'm glad that it is

I'm glad

Instrumental

Now that I've got my motives straight and I am thinking clearly

I'll sneak up to your window with my senses open wide

I never really thought it would be like this

I know it's kind of hard but I'm glad that it is

I'm glad
