Don't you think?

The tick of the clock is
lulling me to peace
and the hospital bracelets
I wear, belie that peace.

If there were a way for me
to make life work in a way
that didn't require so much
crying and turmoil,
don't you think I'd do it?

If I had a choice between happy
and sad, what would I pick?
Depends on my mood....

When I'm happy, I'm on top of the world,
I'm on, I'm it
But when I'm sad, there's nothing to be done.

And it saddens me that I can't control it.

If I could, don't you think I'd do it?
