Don't Call Me Ishmael - Is It Okay to Be Sad?

I could be a captain of a ship maybe a fleet
I could be a shepherd on the mountainside tending to the sheep
Or a soldier set to work as a bodyguard
I could be a teacher looking after the children in the schoolyard

But it doesn't matter none of this stuff matters
If you don't care for me
I'm a human being and I have got feelings
Why don't you care for me

Nothing can prepare you for the vagaries of life
Is it okay to be sad sometimes Even when things are going right
What I need is a new project to push these thoughts out of my mind
If you cared a bit about me it might get me through the night

With the coins on my eyes I'll sail down the river Styx
Will you not care for me
