Lyrics
There's music always playing in my head and
It's driving me mad
The people always put me under pressure
There's better days to be had
I don't see why I have to keep explaining
Why I am what I am
There'll come a time when everybody needs me
And I'll be stuck in the sand
Nobody sees the truth; all they see is a freak
They think I'm crazy but I'm just unique
Even though I'm living high I'm never living free
Sometimes I feel nobody understands me
Some things I'm sure are easily remembered
Some things I’d rather forget
I’ve spent my life trying to deliver
And I ain’t finished yet
Got time now to make up for the wrongs that
pushed me out and brought me down
No more will I be sitting on the couch, I’m
taking over this town
When I ask for water they give me diet coke
Then they laugh it off, ‘cause they think that it's a joke
Even though I'm living high I'm never living free
Sometimes I feel nobody understands me
Looking back on when I was younger
I didn’t get much respect
All the kids thought I was just a madman
No great achievements to expect
Well I won't forget to thank them in my speech when
I become a millionaire
Although I'll probably just remind them
They never helped me get there
It’s a funny old thing how time treats the pain
Long ago there was sunshine, but now there’s only rain
Even though I'm living high I'm never living free
Sometimes I feel nobody understands me
