Burning ash felt so right Pleasing neck grip, yet tight When i caught your eerie flame It flashed inside, cut me apart Your bright shine is hard to blame Chant of pity needs restart Bits of me you put inside They've carved out weird flat design Found me where no one could find Bits of me you planted... why? Shadows turned their back tonight Your blessing is dreadful mind Old self tells me, "run and hide" New's lucky enough to die Burning ash felt so right Pleasing neck grip, yet tight Burning ash felt so right Pleasing neck grip, yet tight

6 o'clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream I was kissing Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream But I can't be late cuz then I guess I just won't get paid These are the days when U wish your bed was already made It's just another manic Monday I wish it was Sunday Cuz that's my fun day My "I don't have 2 run" day It's just another manic Monday Have 2 catch an early train, got 2 be 2 work by 9 If I had an aeroplane, I still couldn't make it on time Cuz it takes me so long just 2 figure out what I'm gonna wear Blame it on the train, but the boss is already there It's just another manic Monday I wish it was Sunday Cuz that's my fun day My "I don't have 2 run" day It's just another manic Monday All of the nights, why did my lover have 2 pick last night 2 get down? (Last night we got down) Doesn't it matter that I have 2 feed the both of us? Employment's down When she tells me in his bedroom voice "Come on, honey, let's go make some noise," what he says Time, it goes so fast (When U're having fun) It's just another manic Monday I wish it was Sunday Cuz that's my fun day It's just another manic Monday

I can't get out of my bed Think there's magnets in my mattress Might as well just be a casket for all I care Oh no, here we go again The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in When I feel crazy, I hide it, then fall apart in private Where my mirror's the only one who sees my tears There's a method to my sadness, it's a chemical imbalance And my head is damaged way beyond repair I'm a manic depressive, passive aggressive, emotionally repressed Introverted, extroverted, melancholic, alcoholic mess I wish my inner thoughts were dinner conversation I wished on every star and every constellation Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Some days, I wish I was dead Think I'm broken, I can't fix it It's an intangible sickness, but it's there Oh no, here we go again The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in So I wrestle my demons 'til I go off the deep end Where I'm drowning and I can't come up for air I've tried every medication and I've gone in hibernation Hiding in my room like a bipolar bear I'm obsessive, compulsive, and self-destructive Hey, what did you expect? Narcissistic and neurotic, I'm just one big ball of stress I wish my inner thoughts were dinner conversation I wished on every star and every constellation I wish that I was calm and wasn't always anxious The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) (creeping in) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in (I'm a manic depressive)
