ZZ Ward - Better Off Dead lyrics
[ZZ Ward - Better Off Dead lyrics]
I can’t put locks on my door
I can’t just stay in this house
I just can’t do it anymore
You got this collar so tight
Playing tricks on my eyes
It’s like I’m swinging my fists when
I’m not in a fight
Don’t know when I’m awake
Or when I’m dreaming
I got these voices in my head
Strap up that straitjacket on me
I asked that doctor what he say
He said: "There ain’t enough meds
Poor boy, you better off dead"
Had four twenties in my drawer
Call three numbers to report
I couldn’t tell you who it was
But someone’s stealing from the poor
Shadows following me, I feel it's legs
I’m asleep
They say I’m losing it hard, count
Down from ten when I breathe, whoa
I got these voices in my head
Strap up that straitjacket on me
I asked that doctor what he say
He said: "There ain’t enough meds
Poor boy, you better off dead"
I don’t care what people say
I’m anything but crazy, crazy
Talking to my shadow, only she
Know I’m not crazy, crazy
