Sunny Days Don't Mean Nothing Lyrics

Hey, why the troubled mind

What did you think you'd find

Pure bliss or harmony

At least a place to tolerate

But you're a guarded inmate

Got you by the goods son

You're fed up, they said, stop feeling

But, baby, they don't know

Sunny days don't mean nothing

When your chest wants to explode

So you keep pressing on

For the kids at home

Wishing better times for them

Help them figure out their love

Give them space to speak of

And a way to make it pay

Take some meds, they said, you'll make it

But I can't make it go

Sunny days don't mean nothing

When your river just won't flow

I ought to stand up, walk right out of here

Not gonna day-to-day another twenty years

No one ever dies wishing worked more

Just mindless cattle on the killing floor
