Lyrics

I promise you there's times I'm not so sad

I experience moments of happiness and am not always sad.

Some days the good will even out the bad

Some days the positive aspects of life balance out the negative.

I know I'm married to my problems

Acknowledging a deep connection or constant involvement with personal issues.

It's always in my head

My problems are consistently on my mind.

And I'm destined for greatness or death

Expressing a belief in a destiny of either achieving greatness or facing death.


Destined for greatness or death

Reiteration of the theme: destined for either greatness or death.


Thought I was standing tall

Feeling confident, but facing unresolved issues.

Repressed with no resolve

Suppressed emotions without finding a solution.

Happiness and ignorance aren't so different after all

Realizing that happiness and ignorance share similarities.

Thought I was being strong

Believing in personal strength, but now recognizing a mistake.

This time you're in the wrong

Acknowledging a fault and admitting to being in the wrong.

I've lived and learned a lot

Having gained experience and knowledge.

I've lived and learned a lot

Emphasizing the learning process.

Now push has come to shove

Facing a critical situation where action is required.

I signed the deed in blood

Making a serious commitment, possibly with consequences.

I need another drug

Expressing a need for something to alleviate pain or stress.

I need another drug

Repetition of the need for a coping mechanism.


I promise you there's times I'm not so sad

Reiteration of experiencing both sadness and happiness.

Some days the good will even out the bad

Reaffirming the balancing nature of good and bad days.

I know I'm married to my problems

Acknowledging an ongoing connection with personal issues.

It's always in my head

Constantly dealing with internal struggles.

And I'm destined for greatness or death

Reaffirmation of the belief in a destiny of greatness or death.

Destined for greatness or death

Reiteration of being destined for greatness or death.


Thought I could make demands

Believing in one's ability to make demands but facing a physical decline.

Now I can barely stand

Struggling to stand due to deteriorating comfort.

Comfort quickly fading with the sickness setting in

Comfort diminishing rapidly with the onset of sickness.

Now push has come to shove

Facing a critical situation, emphasizing urgency.

I signed the deed in blood

Making a serious commitment, possibly with consequences.

I need another drug

Expressing a need for something to alleviate pain or stress.

I need another drug

Repetition of the need for a coping mechanism.


I promise you there's times I'm not so sad

Reiteration of experiencing both sadness and happiness.

Some days the good will even out the bad

Reaffirming the balancing nature of good and bad days.

I know I'm married to my problems

Acknowledging an ongoing connection with personal issues.

It's always in my head

Constantly dealing with internal struggles.

And I'm destined for greatness or death

Reaffirmation of the belief in a destiny of greatness or death.

Destined for greatness or death

Reiteration of being destined for greatness or death.


I'm beginning to think I can't outrun these demons

Recognizing the difficulty in escaping personal demons.

But you know what they say, "Sickness is in season"

Quoting a saying to emphasize the prevalence of challenges.

Sickness is in season

Emphasizing the current prevalence of challenges.


I promise you there's times I'm not so sad

Reiteration of experiencing both sadness and happiness.

Some days the good will even out the bad

Reaffirming the balancing nature of good and bad days.

I know I'm married to my problems

Acknowledging an ongoing connection with personal issues.

It's always in my head

Constantly dealing with internal struggles.

And I'm destined for greatness or death

Reaffirmation of the belief in a destiny of greatness or death.

Destined for greatness or death

Reiteration of being destined for greatness or death.
