All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane

I just want some one to say to me, oh oh oh oh
I'll always be there when you wake
You know I'd like to keep my tears dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made

And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
escape......escape......escape......

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
you don't like my point of view
you think I'm insane
Its not sane......it's not sane.

I just want some one to say to me, oh oh oh oh
I'll always be there when you wake
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
and I'll have it made, and I'll have it made, and I'll have it made.....

Comment: Richard Shannon Hoon died in 1995 due to an accidental cocaine overdose.
His grave is inscribed with the words to the first song he wrote:
Change: "I know we can't all stay here forever / So I want to write my words on the face of today / And they'll paint it".
As of 2006, the band reformed with a new lead vocalist, Travis Warren.
