lyrics

Why when I go out
Do I just need to be alone?
Why when I'm alone
Do I go crazy in my zone?

I'm just a dustbin full of urges
I try to stay afloat
I keep my goodness in control
No mutiny in my boat

Why do I seem happy
When I'm screaming to be burned?
Where do I find the smile?

Where's the reason where's the sense
Where's the cause and consequence
Where's the feeling where's the hate
All I can do is contemplate

I'm just a dustbin full of urges
I try to stay afloat
I keep my goodness in control
No mutiny in my boat
