Isn't it like me

to want to say

things I can't explain ...

in simple ways?



Why should I be sane?

Why can't I be crazy?



Sometimes I'm up,

sometimes I'm down,

I choke on words,

and make no sound.

Sometimes



Sometimes I'm weak

sometimes I'm strong

living with the fear I don't belong

Sometimes



Why is it so hard

to know myself?

Underneath this skin you'll find

someone else.



Don't be so surprised

when you look inside me

inside me



Sometimes It's black

sometimes It's white

you hide behind electric light

Sometimes



Sometimes I swear

sometimes I pray

suddenly the guilty disobey

Sometimes



Sometimes I'm weak

sometimes I'm strong

living with the fear I don't belong

Sometimes



Sometimes I stand

sometimes I fall

I throw myself against the wall

Sometimes



Sometimes I sink

sometimes I swim

tell me why my world is caving in

Sometimes



Sometimes it's sweet

sometimes it's raw

trying to get so high like I did before

Sometimes



Sometimes in love

sometimes in hate

sometimes it's all a big mistake

Sometimes
