Jack of Trades

about

This one goes out to everyone at The Coffee Shop that knew every word and sang along. I would tell you what it's about, but you would probably hate it.

lyrics

It crawls in at any time and I see this little face
And it cries and it wants me to further my mistakes
I give in to its plea and a demon takes its place
God didn't make me this way
God didn't make me this way

I can point to times that killed my innocence
I tried to make it better, man
But fuck the therapist
You'll feel better if you pray to God
Stop spouting that nonsense
God had no hand in this
God had no hand in this

Well, I don't care what you think about me, truly
But if I told you, you would probably hate it
I hate myself because I cut no slack
A jack of trades, a masochist, that's just what I am

My keys are playing at the speed of light
And the click-click of the thunder goes into the night
This ain't music, this ain't love, this ain't where I rest my head
They say I'm better dead
Would I be better dead?

Call up the doctor and take what he prescribed
But it's taken by a world that always strips me of my pride
So I'm back to where I started from, a circle through and through
I blame it all on you, I blame it all on you

Well, I don't care what you think about me, truly
But if I told you, you would probably hate it
I hate myself because I cut no slack
A jack of trades, a masochist, that's just what I am
