Old misery bones is shaking her chains again
I look outside and it’s rain
And my life is terrible and awful
But while I’m taking the meds it’s still lawful
To feel this way 
Is there something in what the people say
That the door will hit you on your way out
And he had enough of my smart mouth
When he hit me with it
Called me quick witted
Then pulled the rug from under my feet
Like we’re in bed and it’s a sheet
And it’s disallowed to speak this way 
I remember what Mark used to say
And how I didn’t understand
But nodded along as long as it was planned 
And the encyclopaedia was a treasure trove of information
Til people tell you you’re getting above your station 
But I love my mind
Even if I’ve left part of it behind 
Embarking on this route
And I like that man although he’s a flute 
And plays like the pied piper every day
And people wonder how he got that way
As if he was flung from the sky
Just falling from on high
And I know it was a lie
When he said he was okay 
Like the ghost that lies in the hay
Tormenting my soul 
As the waves roll 
Into the grand abyss
Do you remember the years we used to kiss
Anytime we wanted 
Now my halls are haunted 
And they all ring with the sound of you
I left because I thought you wanted me to
