I can't fall asleep tonight Man, I feel strange Something's about to explode My body's screaming out loud I had a bad day I fought with mom She lectured me And I listened There's a man in the story Let's call him Mr. John He holds authority Mr. John has a wife She's always away He doesn't call her much And likes it this way I want the world to love me I try so hard This can't be right My phone rings late at night I feel like shit And don't know why I get nightmares when I daydream He knows I get self-conscious Tries to make me feel Some type of way And I get scared by the thought of saying no Mr. John got mad today He expected a reward Didn't slam the brakes to stop I almost got away I have a secret I hold on to It's too ugly to share The story of Mr John Ain't over yet But I won't tell you more about it
