Lyrics:

A cut off of Gnarls Barkley’s classic 2006 album St. Elsewhere.
Danger Mouse utilizes elements from “Touch of Class,” composed by Daniele Luppi.
All I want is your understanding
As in the small act of affection
'Why is this my life?'
Is almost everybody's question

And I've tried
Everything but suicide
But it's crossed my mind

I prefer peace
Wouldn't have to have one worldly possession
But, essentially, I'm an animal
So, just what do I do with all the aggression?

Well, I've tried
Everything but suicide
But it's crossed my mind

Life is a one-way street, ain't it? If you could paint it
I'd draw myself going in the right direction
So, I go all the way, like I really, really know
But the truth is, I'm only guessin'

And I've tried
Everything but suicide
Oh, but it's crossed my mind
Just a thought

It's even dark in the daytime
It's not just good, it's great depression
When I was lost, I even found myself
Looking in the gun's direction

And so, I've tried
Everything but suicide
But yes, it's crossed my mind
But I'm fine
