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.
The lamp is broken on the mantle
My mind is blown and I'm going away
It's getting more than I can handel
It's getting more than I can take
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
I couldn't stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
And I worked hard to make a living
To make a living good for you
But you wanted more than I was giving
I guess that was more than I could do
I couldn't stay here if I wanted
I couldn't stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
