Lyrics
Got a wife
Expressing the presence of a spouse
A boy and 2 girls
Listing the number of children (2 girls and a boy)
2 Dogs and a cat
Mentioning pets – 2 dogs and a cat
What a wonderful world
Reflecting on the beauty of life
Look at my house
Highlighting the material aspects, possibly success
Look at my cars
Further emphasizing material success with cars
Who'd have thought
Expressing surprise at personal achievements
I'd come this far
Reflection on personal growth and success
Why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
Repetition of feeling a mental struggle despite external success
Oh why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Oh why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Me and my friends
Unity with friends in shared experiences
We're all the same
Highlighting commonalities among friends
We live the life
Describing a lifestyle of enjoyment
We play the game
Acknowledging participation in life's challenges
We flash a smile
Masking emotional pain with a smile
To hide the pain
Using a smile to conceal inner struggles
We take the pills
Dependency on pills for mental stability
To keep us sane
Seeking pharmaceutical help for sanity
Why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
Repetition of the internal struggle despite external facade
Oh why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Oh why do I feel like I'm losing my mind
-Pressure coming from inside
Feeling pressure internally, possibly stress
So I got no place to hide
Expressing a lack of refuge or escape
So I got no place to hide
-So I got no place to hide
-So if you see
Signaling sadness for others to notice
Me looking sad
Requesting empathy and attention when appearing sad
Don't turn away
Encouraging others not to ignore emotional distress
It's not so bad
Downplaying personal struggles as not severe
We're all the same
Reiterating shared emotional experiences among people
Inside we cry
Recognizing the universal nature of internal pain
We play the role
Engaging in societal roles while facing internal struggles
And then we die
Embracing the inevitable mortality after life's roles
Why oh why am I losing my mind
Repetition of the perplexity and distress in losing one's mind
Oh why oh why am I losing my mind
-Why oh why am I losing my mind
-Oh why oh why am I losing my mind
