Turn the
ugly light off God
I wanna feel the night
every day it shines down on me
don’t you think that I see
don’t you think that I see
what it’s all about?
hard to look the other way
while the world passes me by
and everyone is trying to bum me out
it’s a pretty big world, God
and I am awful small
every day they rain down on me
flower in a hailstorm
flower in a hailstorm
I’m living for the drought
I could throw it back at them
but then I’d play their game
everyone is trying to bum me out
when I came into this world they slapped me
and every day since then I’m slapped again
tomorrow’s king: an unsightly coward
you see I know I’m gonna win
turn the ugly light off God
don’t wanna see my face
every day it will betray me
don’t you think that I know
don’t you think that I know
what they’re talking about?
If they step on me tonight
they’re gonna pay someday
everyone is trying to bum me out.
