Once upon a time, they called me the bleeder
Well, swimmin' up this river with sentimental fever
But this ain't my first ride, it ain't my last try, just got to keep it movin' on
If they catch me ever, they'll throw me back forever
I guess I should be ashamed
But I forget to be vain
Well, I did the best I could, I guess
But everything just bleeds
They say "you're only sad and lonely
And no one is impressed"
I sent it off in a letter, I need somethin' better
Well, than a nail and a hammer, to put me back together
But this ain't my first ride, it ain't my last try, just got to keep it movin' on
Got to keep this together, maybe next time is never
I guess I should be ashamed
But I forget to be vain
I did the best I could, I guess
But everything just bleeds
They say "you're only sad and lonely
And no one is impressed"
Sometimes, I must confess
I do feel a little overdressed
Sometimes, it's hard to tell the wishing from the well
Where you threw the penny and where it fell
I guess I should be ashamed
But I forget to be vain
Well, I did the best I could, I guess
But everything just bleeds
I guess I should be ashamed
But I forget to be vain
I did the best I could, I guess
But everything just bleeds
They say "you're only sad and lonely
And no one is impressed"
