Mental Lyrics

It's like i dressed up in my mama's clothing

 It's like i'm talking to a voice that doesn't exist

 It's like i got a wire crossed upstairs

 But all i want is just a little truth

 And that's it 

 

 They say i'm mental but i'm just confused

 They say i'm mental but i've been abused

 They say i'm mental 'cause i'm not amused by it all 

 

 Another anchorman is on the tv

 He's got that far away and vacant look in his eye

 I turn the channel but nothing is changing

 The only truth is that everything is a lie 

 

 They say i'm mental but i'm just confused

 They say i'm mental but i've been abused

 They say i'm mental 'cause i'm not amused by it all

 

 There's truth in everything

 There's truth in lies

 With all this knowledge i think i'm gonna be wise 

 

 They say i'm mental but i'm just confused

 They say i'm mental but i've been abused

 They say i'm mental 'cause i'm not amused by it all

 Not at all
