"Storybook Disease" lyrics

"Storybook Disease"

I have many broken dreams
But like broken hearts, they seem to mend with ease
And I've traversed the open sea
With a grain of guts and a gallon of need
But I'm tired and I'm easily fixed
A hair trigger in this one's breed
I'm upset with upsetting things
And always sad to see the good things leave

Long-lost negotiations
Made in hell to break my nerves
I toiled and fought my way to the top
I haven't done but I've tried at least to deserve
Shiny things on golden-plated jewels
Aren't just handed out for those in need
I've learned and I'm learning still
That staying idle is the worst disease

So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you, she says, oh
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me

I blame myself for breaking promises
Made to myself in so-called "dire need"
But I won't apologize for those cursed words
I've laid upon those that I blamed
It's no use to toil over this
Isn't life to be a simple thing?
It's a flux, a want for worth that I need
To dispel these needs

So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you, she says, oh
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me

I have many broken dreams
But like broken hearts, they seem to mend with ease
And I've traversed the open sea
With a grain of guts and a gallon of need
But I'm tired and I'm easily fixed
A hair trigger in this one's breed
I'm upset with upsetting things
And always sad to see the good things leave

So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you? (What's wrong with you?)
So what's wrong with you, she says, oh
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
