[Verse 1]
Lonely in this white room
There are pads everywhere
Chafing straitjacket
I won't die in there
[Pre-Chorus]
Save me, smiling Jesus, get off that cross
Hate me, screaming masses
I don't care if I'm lost
[Chorus]
Don't tell me that you're all better
I don't care if you are
Don't tell me that you're trendsetters
I don't care if you are
[Verse 2]
Lowly with my head bowed
There are rats everywhere
Feed me bread and water
I won't die in there
[Pre-Chorus]
Save me, smiling Jesus, get off that cross
Hate me, screaming masses
I don't care if I'm lost
[Chorus]
Don't tell me that you're all better
I don't care if you are
Don't tell me that you're trendsetters
I don't care if you are
[Bridge]
Say you will, take my pills
Say you will, faking ill
[Chorus]
Don't tell me that you're all better
I don't care if you are
Don't tell me that you're bedwetters
I don't care if you are
[Outro]
Say you will
Take my pills
Say you will
Faking ill
Say you will (Say you will)
Take my pills (Take my pills)
Say you will (Say you will)
Faking ill
