Don't Call Me Ishmael - Wheels

I know what I told you, I know what I said
But this is now and this was then
The light was dimming, a few times I thought it went out
Not waving but drowning, unable to shout

It's hard when you hit rock bottom and it's hard when you reach the top
It's just hard when the wheels come off

When your voice utters something, but you don't know from where it came
And you realise you've got to get out of bed and go through all this again
Things aren't bad, they're just normal, is that what's making it worse?
Like the itch you can't scratch, the door you can't latch, like the car you can't reverse

It's hard when you hit the lowest point
And it's just as hard when you're high above
It's just hard when the wheels have come off

It's hard when the headache keeps pounding
And it's hard when the voices get louder
It's hard when you hit rock bottom and it's hard when you reach the top
It's just hard when the wheels come off
