Gray Sweater

Verse 1
Why is it only me, always suffering?
I just keep driving in fear and laughing
I’m too weak to resist. I give in – fuck it.
Am I lucky or do I feel like a piece of shit?

Chorus
I don’t know, I know nothing,
Everything seems fine, but I’m just fronting.
Not happy, not sad, just repressing the pain,
Wondering if you’re happier now, or if it’s all in vain.

Verse 2
I could only watch as you rack yourself.
I’m picking up empty bottles, cleaning up the mess.
I’m not worth it, always guilty of it all,
Never good enough, feeling so small.

Chorus
I don’t know, I know nothing,
Everything seems fine, but I’m just fronting.
Not happy, not sad, just repressing the pain,
Wondering if you’re happier now, or if it’s all in vain.

Bridge
Always disappointed you, you see the downside
They tell me just to let go, but I can’t hide.
Should I just be patient? Is there a sign?
Is it better or worse? Is there a flicker of light?

Verse 3
Can I handle this, or will I fall in despair?
Trust has crumbled, but I’m still standing here.
Everything is pointless, wearing this gray sweater,
It’s a gray rainy day, with vast fields of gray heather.

Chorus
I don’t know, I know nothing,
Everything seems fine, but I’m just fronting.
Not happy, not sad, just repressing the pain,
Wondering if you’re happier now, or if it’s all in vain.

Outro
I’m cursed to feel depressed,
But I am sick and tired of being sad.
It’s always the same old story.
Not heartache again. I’m feeling sorry.
