[Verse]
All I want is your understanding
As in the small act of affection

"Why is this my life?"
Is almost everybody's question


[Hook]
And I've tried
Everything but suicide

But it's crossed my mind

[Verse]

I prefer peace
Wouldn't have to have one word of possession
But essentially I'm an animal

So just what do I do with all the aggression?

[Hook]

Well I've tried
Everything but suicide
But it's crossed my mind


[Verse]
Life is a one-way street, and if you could paint it

I'd draw myself going in the right direction
So I go all the way - like I really really know -
But the truth is I'm only guessin'


[Hook]
And I've tried

Everything but suicide
Oooh but it's crossed my mind
Just a thought


[Verse]
It's even dark in the daytime

It's not just good - it's +Great Depression+
When I was lost I even found myself
Looking in the gun's direction


[Hook]
And so I've tried

Everything but suicide
But yes - it's crossed my mind
But I'm fine
