I'm thinking over it
I think too much
It hinders my spirit
when there's never enough
Shell-game sleight of hand
To wish for something more
Honest husbands, cheating wives
Generous buyers, greedy stores
"I'll get through it, I'll get through it"
I'll say it ten times over: "I'll get through it, I'll get through it"
"I'm better than this"
That's what anchors me (I mean it weighs me down)
Can't give thanks to fear, can't say no to crowds
Guess I'll just play dumb (shouldn't be too hard : )
Peaceful people, violent guns
Sober drivers, drunken cars
I'm better than nothing and nothing is better than this
I think too much
It hinders my spirit
when there's never enough
Shell-game sleight of hand
To wish for something more
Honest husbands, cheating wives
Generous buyers, greedy stores
"I'll get through it, I'll get through it"
I'll say it ten times over: "I'll get through it, I'll get through it"
"I'm better than this"
That's what anchors me (I mean it weighs me down)
Can't give thanks to fear, can't say no to crowds
Guess I'll just play dumb (shouldn't be too hard : )
Peaceful people, violent guns
Sober drivers, drunken cars
I'm better than nothing and nothing is better than this

To me it sounds like Jonah is just tired of all the crap in the world. When you look at the big picture of everything happening around the world your out look becomes dark. You feel so helpless and wonder "whats the point? What can I do to change it?" But, when you bring it down to the small picture and look at, for example, your group of friends (For Jonah its crowds) and you think about all the good times you have when your with them your life feels like it has meaning and purpose and that alone sometimes is what gets me through the day.
