The Isolation Of Mister |
Never looked forward to the future |
Never enjoyed where I’ve been |
Couldn’t keep my mind in the moment |
Never really cared if I had a friend |
I always felt like there was something better |
Even when I had it made |
Never respected the job I was doing |
Never cared about money but I felt underpaid |
Saw so many people |
Walking out the door |
Never cared about being lonely |
Because I couldn’t use you no more |
I said, go away |
I’m quittin' on you today |
I always felt like sorrow was a lesson |
I always felt I needed to feel the pain |
I thought happiness was a transgression |
And I just took it as it came |
I never wanted to say too much |
To other people I did not understand |
Never made love with my heart in it |
Never wanted to make any plans |
Saw so many lovers |
Walk out that door |
Never cared about being lonely |
Because you didn’t love me no more |
I said, go away, go away |
I’m quittin' on you today |
Love 'em, leave 'em, then forget 'em |
Don’t worry about 'em when they’re gone |
That’s the way I always played it |
Now maybe I played it all wrong |
Been so indifferent about so many things |
About my time and my rage |
Thought I was livin' a life of freedom |
But I was living in a cage |
And that cage bred with my lower self |
So many knots I did not untie |
They came undone by my faults |
And here’s the reason why |
Saw so many lovers |
Walk out that door |
Never cared about being lonely |
Because I didn’t love you no more |
I said, go away, go away, go away |
I’m quittin' on you today |
