Don't Know What I Want
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.
Pissed off got nothing to say
Nothing to do
Why do I feel this way ?
Mixed up - The will to survive
But I can't tell if I'm dead or alive
A no win situation
What can you do ?
Of my own creation
I don't have a clue
I don't know, don't know
Don't know what I want
I don't know, don't know
But I want it now
Right now!
Hang on don't know if I can
How much can I take
How much can I stand
Tied down by things that I hide
I bite my lip I swallow my pride
Emptiness ivades me
Tries to push you auround
Happiness escapes me
Here's what I found
I don't know, don't know
Don't know what I want
I don't know, don't know
Don't But I want it now
Yes I do!
Don't wanna go but but I gotta get away
Damned if you do
And damned if you don't
My cross to bear if I stay this way
Your power of will has left you alone
All alone
Lookin' for an answer
I can't believe where I've been
Headed for disaster
The way that I see
