mood swings - mercury rev lyrics

my mood swings, back and forth all day, all night
i can’t sleep, can’t sit still, i count the minutes until
my mood swings, like a pendulum clock
but the little pills won’t make it stop
my mood swings, like a child’s rocking horse
and the pill bottle spills and my mind starts to fill
into my mouth and suddenly
my night goes from north to south
my mood swings and it swings and it swings
it’s time to feel alive
with each new though of a memory’s touch
my mood swings and i feel the rush

my mood swings, and it swings and it swings
sometimes even without asking me
suddenly reminding me of deep down things
the way my mother would sing over my father’s mood swings
how swiftly she could go from humming
“just the way the way you are”
to whistling, “oh, the people you know”
this immense loneliness flapping in her chest
like lady day, she knew why the caged bird sings
and now, so do i, it sings and it sings
because each night it hurts just a little less
reminding me more and more and more
of deep down things
and the way my own mood swings
night after night, my mood swings
come and go as they like
rebellious fickle teenagers, unable to decide
boy, i sure wish they’d make up my mind
lying awake, afraid to move even an inch
frozen like a child lost in a crowd
taught to remain there, stone still
but i can’t, not now
or at least not until my mood swings
wildly, two shadows boxing in the breeze
even in my dreams if i’m down for the count
well, it’s the strangest thing because try as i might
i still can’t imagine a world without my mood swings

and it swings, and it swings, and it swings

[instrumental outro]
