[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
