Thats it. Im pretty sure the whole thing is right. If you can't
figure
out how I got some of the bass fills just listen closely to the song.
Have FUn.
Lyrics
Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane because I am Frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify
Can you help me?
Occupy my brain?
oh yeah
I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind
Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal
And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late
