lyrics

I've never felt so cold and empty.
Is there anyone inside?
Now I sit like this for hours,
Counting every breath I take.

Am I okay? Am I okay?

Now the clock is counting slowly,
In the corner of my room,
And I haven't cleaned in so long,
There's dust on everything I own.

Am I okay? Am I okay?
Am I okay? Am I okay?

Sitting alone with my heart filled with blood,
And two lungs filled with air,
And a gut filled with bad mistakes.
Now I'm getting paranoid.
My body is killing me.
I want to get out of the corpse that's surrounding me.
I walk to the drugstore,
And I take my meds,
And I go to the hospital when that's not enough.
Remember just last year,
They chopped up my kidney,
And stitched me together, a partial nephrectomy.
I want to go back where I was a few years ago.
We got in my car and drove out to Ohio.
I want to go back to when I could be happy.
Was I ever happy?
Was I ever happy?
