That's All That Matters
I can't get up
Nothing is ever enough
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
Didn't eat
Didn't sleep
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
Don't say a word
No one cares on this earth
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
Struggle to stay in place
Don't want to be awake
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
All my work went down the drain
Smile and no one sees your pain
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
Nothing ever gets better
No one ever reads my letters
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
Leave me be, I'll paint it red
We all think I'm better off dead
But I'm smart
And that's all that matters
