Lyrics
1. Finished with my woman cause she couldnt help me with my mind.
People think Im insane because I am frowning all the time.
2. All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy.
Think Ill lose my mind if I dont find something to pass it by.
3. I need someone to show me the things in life that I cant find.
I cant see the things that make true happines I must be blind.
4. Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry.
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal.
5. And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state.
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but its too late.
