[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I have no strength to move at all, I will not answer if you call. I do not know if I am weak, Or simply have no words to speak. [Verse 2] This week has taken all I had, A flat-out script that made me bad The social drain took such a toll, I lost my peace and self-control [Chorus] I do not want to look so mean, Or stay away and not be seen. While others hate to be alone, I need some time to call my own [Verse 3] I feed the wolves to earn my pay, They eat my will throughout the day. A weekend crowd or party line, Is just more mental overtime [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] I play the part because I need, Even if that will make me bleed. But if the choice was up to me, I'd skip the thought entirely. [Chorus] I do not want to look so mean, Or stay away and not be seen. While others hate to be alone, I need some time to call my own [Outro] Maybe some day I’ll find a way, To tolerate the things they say. The problem is, I'll have you know, I am too old to change or grow. [Instrumental Ending] [End]
