Barenaked Ladies This Is Where It Ends lyrics

I don't buy everything I read
I haven't even read everything I've bought
I don't cry every time I bleed
My eyes are dry, but they're bloodshot

I have faith in medications
I believe in the Prozac Nations
You play doctor, but I've lost patience

But this is where it ends, this is where it ends
Call the police and call the press
But please, dear God, don't tell my friends
This is where it ends, this is where it ends

Where's my pride? Where's my self-esteem?
Does it show in the drinks I've bought?
I don't hide every time I'm seen
But I try not to get caught

Make excuses for behavior
Can my illness be my savior?
Hid my heart while you still gave yours


But this is where it ends, this is where it ends
Call the police and call the press
But please, dear God, don't tell my friends
This is where it ends, this is where it ends

She says, she wants to live in a movie
I say, "I want someone else to
Stand behind me and write it all down
'Cause I can't be bothered doing it myself
And I don't want the responsibility
Of proving its importance

I have loved and I have waited
Been picked up and been sedated
Mental health is overrated

But this is where it ends, this is where it ends
Call the police and call the press
But please, dear God, don't tell my friends
This is where it ends, this is where it ends
