about

Most people on hearing this think it's about suicide. That wasn't my intention when writing it but I can see where they are coming from. Hey! It can be about anything you want.

lyrics

Sometimes I get oh so tired
Of dragging myself through the mire
I don't know what I want anymore
I can't tell the ceiling from the floor

How on earth did I get here?
How the hell did i get here?

There's blood on the sheets
A stain on the wall
And I'm still sitting here
Waiting for your call

I know where I'm going
But I don't know where I've been.
And I'm looking for something
That I've already seen.

How on earth did I get here?
How the hell did I get here?

See the strange face looking back from the looking glass
