Jay Reatard My Rotten Mind lyrics

I see my self high up in the sky
people around me hoping I don’t die
I’m just taking a ride on a big balloon
and I promise i will be coming home real soon

I know where I’m gonna go and I don’t wanna be this way

surrounded by people that wanna watch me fall
but in my mind I will kill them all
seeing enemy’s dying at my feet
but really I’m just fighting me

I know where I’m gonna go and I don’t wanna be this way

I don’t wanna be I don’t wanna be … be this way

I see my self crawling on the floor
time and time again its such a fucking bore
looking for something that I know I wont find
ignoring the signs from my rotten mind

I know where I’m gonna go and I don’t wanna be this way
I don’t wanna be I don’t wanna be … be this way
