verse 1 I can't get out of my bed, think there's magnets in my mattress Might as well just be a casket for all I care Oh no, here we go again The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in When I feel crazy, I hide it, then fall apart in private Where my mirror's the only one who sees my tears There's a method to my sadness, it's a chemical imbalance And my head is damaged way beyond repair Pre-Chorus 1 I'm a manic depressive, passive aggressive, emotionally repressed Introverted extroverted, melancholic, alcoholic mess I wish my inner thoughts were dinner conversation I wished on every star and every constellation Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) verse 2 Some days, I wish I was dead Think I'm broken, I can't fix it It's an intangible sickness, but it's there Oh no, here we go again The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in So I wrestle my demons 'til I go off the deep end Where I'm drowning and I can't come up for air I've tried every medication and I've gone in hibernation Hiding in my room like a bipolar bear Pre-Chorus 2 I'm obsessive, compulsive, and self-destructive Hey, what did you expect? Narcissistic and neurotic, I'm just one big ball of stress I wish my inner thoughts were dinner conversation I wished on every star and every constellation I wish that I was calm and wasn't always anxious The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) (Creeping in) Oh, manic, oh, manic, oh (I'm a manic depressive) Outro The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh The bad thoughts are creeping in The bad thoughts are creeping in, oh
