[Verse 1]
I've been walking circles in my bedroom for an hour,
Staring at the socks I'm wearing, since Saturday,
Couldn't find the energy to do my laundry,
Haven't seen a ray of light, in a week.

[Chorus]
All of the joy has been taken away,
The mess in my room has taken its place,
Think I should man up,
Think I should get away.

[Verse 2]
And a visit to the store is the only thing that's harder than staying awake,
Always mind over matter, but now that I've had it my skin colour fades.

[Pre-Chorus]
There's a ghost where I sleep,
It's been there for fifty weeks,
There's a ghost where I sleep,
It's been there for fifty weeks.

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
All of the joy has been taken away,
The mess in my room has taken its place,
Think I should man up,
Think I should get away.

[Chorus]
All of the joy has been taken away,
 (You're building it up, you're breaking it down),
The mess in my room has taken its place,
 (And once you get out, it's all crumbling down),
Think I should man up,
(The future is faint, how long can one stay),
Think I should get away,
(In a waiting room).

[Outro]
All of the joy has been taken away
The mess in my room has taken its place
Think I should man up
