Welcome To My World (Exclusive Bonus Tracks)
 
When I'm down, really down,
Nothin' matters. Nothin' does.
I close my eyes, go to sleep.
But I can't sleep. I can't sleep.
 
Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself.
 
Junior High I lost my mind.
I don't know why. It's a terrible thing.
Since that day it's been a struggle
Trying to make sense out of scrambled eggs.
 
Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself.
 
I painted a bar and I never got paid,
In a town where everyone was on foot.
I was locked in on Easter day.
All I had to eat was a piece of bread.
 
When I got home my mother said
"You're a lazy bum and that's how come
You suffer like that and you'll starve
All your life. All your life."
 
Spoken just like it was a curse,
But it didn't really sound so bad.
I like to make things up,
It's the healthiest thing that I do.
 
But I'm tired
From being kidnapped
By a dark wolf that would
Do me in.
 
Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself.
 
I'm just saying how I feel.
Maybe you could try to understand.
I'm a man who needs you.
 
When I'm down, really down
Nothin' matters. Nothin' does.
I close my eyes to go to sleep,
But I can't sleep. I can't sleep.
 
You can listen to these songs,
Have a good time and walk away.
But for me it's not that easy.
I have to live these songs forever.
 
Please hear my cry for help, and save me from myself.
