Peek a Boo

When I'm down, really down, Nothin' matters. Nothin' does. I close my eyes, go to sleep. But I can't sleep. I can't sleep. Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself. Junior High I lost my mind. I don't know why. It's a terrible thing. Since that day it's been a struggle Trying to make sense out of scrambled eggs. Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself. I painted a bar and I never got paid, In a town where everyone was on foot. I was locked in on Easter day. All I had to eat was a piece of bread. When I got home my mother said "You're a lazy bum and that's how come You suffer like that and you'll starve All your life. All your life." Spoken just like it was a curse, But it didn't really sound so bad. I like to make things up, It's the healthiest thing that I do. But I'm tired From being kidnapped By a dark wolf that would Do me in. Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself. I'm just saying how I feel. Maybe you could try to understand. I'm a man who needs you. When I'm down, really down Nothin' matters. Nothin' does. I close my eyes to go to sleep, But I can't sleep. I can't sleep. You can listen to these songs, Have a good time and walk away. But for me it's not that easy. I have to live these songs forever. Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself.
