What’s wrong with me? I can’t do anything they can do And they do it so easily It doesn’t help that they reinforce this inferiority By telling me constantly that which is wrong with me. They mock   And they laugh What a worthless joke I am   Still living at home Watching the time go by Remaining in the same place I was left years ago Still don’t have a driver’s license Or even a job I sit in my bed And let the painful memories flood in It’s a shock I’m not dead How have I not committed suicide yet? They can mock me if they want I’m already numb To the cruelty of humankind You ask what’s wrong with me with that arrogant nature Your smug expression wrinkles your painted face To put down another for their flaws and disabilities ... I should be the one asking What is wrong with you?

What Is Wrong
What’s wrong with me? I can’t do anything they can do And they do it so easily It doesn’t help that they reinforce this inferiority By telling me constantly that which is wrong with me. They mock   And they laugh What a worthless joke I am   Still living at home Watching the time go by Remaining in the same place I was left years ago Still don’t have a driver’s license Or even a job I sit in my bed And let the painful memories flood in It’s a shock I’m not dead How have I not committed suicide yet? They can mock me if they want I’m already numb To the cruelty of humankind You ask what’s wrong with me with that arrogant nature Your smug expression wrinkles your painted face To put down another for their flaws and disabilities ... I should be the one asking What is wrong with you?
