How does it make you feel?
To feel the way you do?
To be locked in a window
But have a crow free in the blue
Days go by
Same old routine
Knowing you will never fly
Or anything in between
Mother, where did I go wrong?
Did I do this to myself?
Have I been like this all along?
Father, couldn't you save me?
Weren't there any warning signs?
Like a storm rising in the sea?
Or did you just not want to believe?
Treat yourself but eat right
It's all done in moderation
They make up rules that keep you up at night
But they tell you you're on vacation
They made up normal and they tell you you don't
Quite match their description
To fix you up they throw you in a home
And fill you with a prescription
Mother, where did I go wrong?
Did I do this to myself?
Have I been like this all along?
Father, couldn't you save me?
Weren't there any warning signs?
Like a storm rising in the sea?
Or did you just not want to believe?
Oh, but you're better now
You can finally sleep
You've put in your hours
Oh, come on dear friend
Is there anyone to pick you up
Does anyone care in the end?
Will they ever lend a hand?
