Happy to Be Here |
If I could do what I want I’d become an electrician |
I’d climb inside my head and I’d rearrange the wires in my brain |
A different me would be inhabiting this body |
Have two cars, a garage, a job and I would go to church on Sunday |
A diagram of faulty circuitry explains how I was made |
And now the engineer is listening as I voice all my complaints |
From an orchestra of shaking metal keeping me awake |
I was just wondering if there was any way that you made a mistake |
Because I miss it the way that I miss nicotine |
If it makes me feel better, how bad can it be? |
Well I heard there’s a fix for everything |
Then why, then why, then why, then why not me? |
The 1st of April saw the sickening repair |
Wore my best shirt to the clinic decorated with the laminate name |
No one is laughing from an audience of folding plastic chairs |
And I’m not fooled when you tell me that you’re glad I came |
Am I just honest to admit or just a hypocrite? |
I know I should be being optimistic but I’m doubtful I can change |
Grit my teeth and try to act deserving |
When I know there’s nowhere I can hide from your humiliating grace |
Cause if you swear that it’s true then I have to believe |
What I hear evangelicals say on TV |
And if there’s enough left after everyone else |
Then why, then why, then why, then why not me? |
