Night Birds - The Day I Beat My Brain lyrics

My room is lit up by the static
Blaring out of my TV
And my only real comfort
Is the lack of company
"Baby Steps" all through the work day
For just a night out on the town
I got a chemical imbalance
It keeps me home and on the ground

Don't say, I want to be this way
Don't say, there's no other way

The day I beat my brain
It was a day like all the rest
I realized I'm better off
In the world I loathe than all alone
The world I loathe than all alone

No confusing my condition
They know exactly what I am
And I don't doubt my medication
I'll take 'em standing on my head
I spin the same two records
It's not like I have a choice
Your band sounds like homework
The kind I never could avoid

The day I beat my brain
It was a day like all the rest
I realized I'm better off
In the world I loathe than all alone
The world I loathe than all alone

The day I beat my brain
It was a day like all the rest
I realized I'm better off
In the world I loathe than all alone
A world I loathe than all alone
