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
