Lyrics

Do you have the time to listen to me whine

Asking if the listener has time to hear me complain

About nothing and everything all at once

Talking about various issues, both significant and trivial, all at the same time

I am one of those

Identifying as someone who fits a certain category

Melodramatic fools

Describing oneself as overly dramatic and foolish

Neurotic to the bone

Expressing extreme anxiety or worry down to one's core

No doubt about it

Acknowledging without question or uncertainty


Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Feeling uneasy or anxious at times

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

Experiencing moments where my thoughts deceive or confuse me

It all keeps adding up

Everything keeps accumulating, building up

I think I'm cracking up

Believing that I might be losing my mental stability

Am I just paranoid?

Questioning whether my thoughts are unfounded and exaggerated

I'm just stoned

Implying that I'm just under the influence of drugs


I went to a shrink

Seeking professional help to understand my subconscious thoughts

To analyze my dreams

Visiting a therapist to interpret the meaning behind my dreams

She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down

Being told that lack of sexual activity is causing my distress

I went to a whore

Visiting a prostitute who comments negatively on my life

He said my life's a bore

Receiving advice to stop complaining as it affects others negatively

And quit my whining cause it's bringing her down

(Empty line)


Grasping to control

Struggling to maintain authority or command over a situation

So you better hold on

Advising the listener to hold on or brace themselves
