Verse 1 I’m so happy I'm cryin' Living is slowly dyin Trust I’m always lying And falling isn’t flying Verse 2 I don’t know who I am I’m just some mister man Mirrors hold strangers Streets splashed with danger Chorus My world more compact than I expected Hoping from power surges I’m protected I think I’ve lost all physical articulation Lost status and all spiritual sensation I’m so happy I'm cryin' Living is slowly dyin' Trust I’m always lyin' And falling isn’t flyin' Verse 3 My automatic inaction Like an allergic reaction I get sensitive information Going on a mental vacation Bridge A high school bus goes down a ravine Helicopter crashes and kills a marine Politician indicted for corruption hooray On just another normal average day… Chorus My world more compact than I expected Hoping from power surges I’m protected I think I’ve lost all physical articulation Lost status and all spiritual sensation I’m so happy I'm cryin' Living is slowly dyin' Trust I’m always lyin' And falling isn’t flyin' Verse 4 Living it up in the land of the dead Maybe I should write novels instead I can’t stay awake and I can’t sleep I saw the abyss but it wasn’t that deep Verse 5 I have begun to see the end Cardboard cutout superficial friend Finding how much I have lost Impossible to calculate the cost Chorus My world more compact than I expected Hoping from power surges I’m protected I think I’ve lost all physical articulation Lost status and all spiritual sensation I’m so happy I'm cryin' Living is slowly dyin' Trust I’m always lyin' And falling isn’t flyin' Outro I am blind just to be clear I’m at the wheel but can’t steer Hanging on thoughts I let go Drowning with the flow… I’m so happy I'm cryin' Living is slowly dyin' Trust I’m always lyin' And falling isn’t flyin'
