This song is a story about the experience of trying to get a hold of your life, or figure out what it means to be a human. Inevitably, something will happen in your life forcing you to realize how little you actually know or how little control you have over certain things in life.

[Verse 1]
I cannot remember anything you say
When the streets are talking, yeah, they call my name
And I walk a little further, I could go all day
And the trees are reaching, pointing out the way
[Chorus]
I got all muddled up and journeyed to the edge of town
And then the road cracked open, sucked me in and I went down
Now standing face to face with the king of the underground
Some things just don’t add up, I’m upside down, I’m inside out
[Verse 2]
I came a little closer to the truth that day
I heard its call in the alleyway
And the one resounding answer that I could take
Is that I don’t know nothing and I got no way
[Chorus]
I got all muddled up and journeyed to the edge of town
And then the road cracked open, sucked me in, and I went down
Now standing face to face with the king of the underground
Some things just don’t add up, I’m upside down, I’m inside out
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I got all muddled up and journeyed to the edge of town
And then the road cracked open, sucked me in, and I went down
Now standing face to face with the king of the underground
Some things just don’t add up, I’m upside down, I’m inside out
[Bridge]
Hey, guy, have you got something on your mind?
Tick, tock, can I take it for a while?
Hey, guy, have you got something on your mind?
Tick, tock, could I take it for a while?
Hey guys, I got something on my mind
Tick, tock, could you take it for a while?
Hey guys, I got something on my mind
Tick, tock, can I take it for a while?
Hey guys, I got something on my mind
Tick, tock, could you take it for a while?
Hey guys, I got something on my mind
Tick, tock
[Outro]
And I got something on my mind
And I got something on my mind
And I got something on my mind
And I got something on my mind
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
