Trying to Pull Myself Away lyrics

Sometimes I try to do things, and it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to
And I get real frustrated, it's like, I try hard to do it and like I take my time,
But it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to, it's like I try real hard
But it doesn't work out, and everything I do and everything I try, it never turns out
And it's like, I need time to figure these things out,
But there's always someone there going:
- Hey Mike, you know, we been noticing you've been having a lot of problems lately,
Y'know? And it's like, maybe get away.
Maybe you should talk about it, you'd feel a lot better.
And I go:
- No, it's ok, y'know? I'll figure it out.
Just leave me alone I'll figure it out, y'know? I'll just work it out myself
They go:
- Well, if you wanna talk about it, I'll be here, y'know? And you'll probably feel a lot better to talk about it, why don't you talk about it?
And I go:
- No, I don't want to, I'm ok, I'll figure it out myself!
And they just keep on bugging me,
and they just keep on bugging me and it builds up inside,
It builds up inside...

So you're gonna be institutionalized
You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes
You won't have any say
They'll brainwash you until you see their way

I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution

They stuck me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

I was sitting in my room, and I was like staring at the walls thinking about everything
But then again I was thinking about nothing, and then my mom came in
And I didn't notice she was there and she calls my name and I didn't hear her
And then she started screaming:
- Mike, Mike!
And I go:
- What, what's the matter?
She goes:
- What's the matter with you?
I say:
- Nothing mom.
She goes:
- Don't tell me nothing, you're on drugs!
I go:
- No mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm ok, I'm just thinking, y'know? Why don't you get me a Pepsi?
She goes:
- No, you're on drugs!
I go:
- Mom, I'm ok, I'm just thinking.
And she goes:
- No, you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people won't be acting that way!
I go:
- Mom, just get me a Pepsi. All I wanted was a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me.
All I wanted was a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me, just one Pepsi.

They give you a white shirt with long sleeves
Tied around you're back, you're treated like thieves
Drug you up because they're lazy
It's too much work to help a crazy

I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution

They stuck me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

I was sitting in my room and my mom and my dad came in and they pulled up a chair and they sat down, they go:
- Mike, we need to talk to you.
And I go:
- Ok, what's the matter?
They go:
- Me and your mom, we been noticing lately you've been having alot of
problems, and you've been goin' off for no reason, and we're afraid that
you're going to hurt somebody, and we're afraid that you're gonna hurt
yourself, so we decided that it would be in your best interest if we put
you somewhere where you could get the help that you need...
And I go:
- Wait, what are we talking about?! We decided?! My best interest?!
How can you know what my best interest is?
How can you say what my best interest is?
What are you trying to say? I'm crazy? When I went to your schools,
I went to your churches, I went to your institutional learning facilities.
So how can you say I'm crazy?

They say they're gonna fix my brain
Alleviate my suffering and my pain
But by the time they fix my head
Mentally I'll be dead

I'm not crazy - institution
You're the one who's crazy - institution
You're driving me crazy - institution

They take me to an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

It doesn't matter I'll probably get hit by a car anyway.
