Special - Simple Creatures

Nothing sinister starts out sober

Sometimes the chemicals work me over

The things you learn at 4 AM

When do I become who I am?

Save your blast from the past, this is not a mirage

I’m a stolen car in a parking garage

On your hands and your knees, do you feel in charge?

Crawling back to who you were

I just wanna feel good

I wanna feel special

Deep down underneath the pressure

I wanna fake my pain away

I wanna fake my pain away

I just wanna feel good

I just wanna feel good

And fake my pain

I just wanna feel good

I just wanna feel good

Where’s the time go?

Here comes the heavy load

I’ve got two houses and a hungry, hungry ego

Hard to make the best of a good thing now

'Cause this town’s too big, too big for the one of me

Sometimes you’ll make friends with the enemy

Am I the one on the phone or a wannabe?

Are you crawling back to who you were?

'Cause I just wanna feel good

I wanna feel special

Deep down underneath the pressure

I wanna fake my pain away

I wanna fake my pain away

I just wanna feel good

I just wanna feel good

And fake my pain

I just wanna feel good

I just wanna feel good

I just wanna wake up

Put a smile on my face that isn’t made up

Float just like a feather

Or sink just like a stone thrown in a river

I just wanna feel good

I wanna feel special

Deep down underneath the pressure

I wanna fake my pain away

I wanna fake my pain away

I just wanna feel good

(I wanna feel special)

When the hell is it gonna get better?

I just wanna feel good

And fake my pain

I just wanna feel good
