I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down

And have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb

    robort. to me it is quite obvious this song is about drugs. /i/ am sick of people saying that courtney killed kurt and all that bollocks when it's far from certain. is it so hard to admit that kurt killed himself? can't you see how depressed he was? i know it's possible he was murdered, but shut up already about the murdering thing.

    as for that drugs stuff, we did a whole load of crazy shit, after he was prescribed amphetemines(sp?) and tranquilizers from the age of 7. i think arguing about what he is singing about in this song silly.

    that's what i think anyway.
