Mood Swings

And I think that
Is the part of hell that a person in depression really tastes
The hopelessness, the hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness, terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness, terrible hopelessness
Terrible hopelessness, terrible hopelessness

Let's take another one
I swear, I'm havin' fun, but I look miserable
'Cause time don't heal no pain
I still feel just the same, I guess time is standin' still
Draw a smile on every day
I've run out of paint, hold my brush, I'm feelin' faint

Feel like I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can't break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

Someday I might find peace I long left behind
I hope you're still here when I do
I know it ain't fair to you, that I put you through
My condition is no excuse

I know it won't make much sense, but baby, in my defense
You're the only one I feel safe around
Let me explain myself, it's the first time I've felt
Like not runnin' us into the ground

Feel like I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can't break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

I've always sacrificed anything that's brought me happiness
For emptiness
But in exchange for my pain, I maintain inspiration
This heartache is my medication

Feel like I can really be myself around you
Mood swings like a pendulum, I can't break loose
Feel like I can really be myself around you

I feel like I can really be myself around you
