Black Sabbath - Paranoid 

Lyric

Finished with my woman

'Cause she couldn't help me with my mind

People think I'm insane

Because I am frowning all the time

All day long I think of things

But nothing seems to satisfy

Think I'll lose my mind

If I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?

Oh yeah!

I need someone to show me

The things in life that I can't find

I can't see the things that make true happiness

I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh

And you will laugh and I will cry

Happiness I cannot feel

And love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words

Telling you now of my state

I tell you to enjoy life

I wish I could but it's too late
