Lyrics

I'm glad that you can't see me darling
I'm glad you didn't write or call
You would have seen how much I'm changing
I'm just not coping well at all
Sorry if I hurt you darling
But that's the way the dice fall
In a spin with the devil driving
I'm just not coping well at all

They tell me life begins at forty
Well, if that's true, I hope time crawls
For on the downward slide from thirty
I'm just not coping well at all
Dreams all gone and lovers leaving
Battles lost beyond recall
No heroes left I can believe in
I'm just not coping well at all

Look at my life: it's turning away from me
And I've not become the man that I once hoped I'd be
Look at my life: it's just an empty sham
All that trouble and pain just to be what I am

The house is quiet since you left me
There's no love within its walls
Only the lonesome sound of empty
Into the silence falls
Other men can lose their lovers
Bounce back like a rubber ball
I'm just not like those others
I'm just not coping well at all
Look at my life: it's turning away from me
And I've not become the man that I once hoped I'd be
Look at my life: it's just an empty sham
All that trouble and pain just to be what I am

I'm just not like those others
I'm just not coping well at all
