To live in the city and fight the good fight - or stay in the woods and find peace...

Better off alone
Well I guess it all goes back to what I've been saying all along
No matter what I try I keep on getting it all wrong
but as long as I stay pessimistic I'll always be pleasantly surprised
I came home from the city back in 1996
left my pursuit of fame and fortune for a life out in the sticks
And ever since I've wondered if I was mistaken and I should've stayed to fight
Silver, patchwork moonlight on the newly fallen snow
The woods are dark and quiet and the air is sharp and cold
Out here I face my disenchantment with the world that I have known
wondering if after all I'm better off alone
You see I've got a mild case of sociopathic disease
Not that I dislike other people or that people dislike me
But I try to keep my distance and my business sealed from any prying eyes
And it's this general mistrust of the entire human race
that make me questionable company and always out of place
But if there's anything I've learned it's that you'd best do it yourself to get it right
Someday I may lapse back into insanity
and rejoin the rat-race and urban calamity...
...But probably not
Silver, patchwork moonlight on the newly fallen snow
The woods are dark and quiet and the air is sharp and cold
Out here I face my disenchantment with the world that I have known
wondering if after all I'm better off alone
