Happening.
I wasn't always this way
If only you'd have met me in younger days
We could have been what you want
We could have been what I think you want, but
You don't tell me what you want, and
I don't tell me what I want
Can't you see I've become quite gaunt?
The food I eat has begun to taunt me
I've begun to grind my teeth
I cannot find relief
And the world doesn't seem
To be happening
Because the drum I beat isn't heard by anyone
For I am weak and cannot beat a drum to save my life
I should take a knife, and carve my name, as if it were my right
Into the desk where i write: into the cave where I hide
I'm a meat and steam factory
Don't describe my face to me
I'm a meat and steam factory
This heat is getting to me
And the world doesn't seem to be happening
If only you'd have met me in younger days
We could have been what you want
We could have been what I think you want, but
You don't tell me what you want, and
I don't tell me what I want
Can't you see I've become quite gaunt?
The food I eat has begun to taunt me
I've begun to grind my teeth
I cannot find relief
And the world doesn't seem
To be happening
Because the drum I beat isn't heard by anyone
For I am weak and cannot beat a drum to save my life
I should take a knife, and carve my name, as if it were my right
Into the desk where i write: into the cave where I hide
I'm a meat and steam factory
Don't describe my face to me
I'm a meat and steam factory
This heat is getting to me
And the world doesn't seem to be happening
