Okay been a while but finally rewrote it. Also recorded on my new electric tenor uke
There are no harmonies or fancy stuff but it's in time and it's the bare skeleton of the song. Thoughts?

Check the road so no one can see
What tripping on nothing does to me
Tripping on nothing makes me wana leave
Up and down, in and out
It seems my brain has grown a sprout
Eating up my every joy
Alright head, lets not deploy
The day never ends
And the night is not my friend
Nobody believe and nobody cares
No not unless you're famous and dead
Nobody believe
The first sign of defeat
Don't be fooled by this melody,
My mind is clinging desparately
To every single happy thought
That I never felt and was only taught
Every time I cry for help
There's a certain lack of sighs and yelps
Pushed to the side and down the drain
No wonder I'm going insane
The day never ends
And the night is not my friend
Nobody believe and nobody cares
No not unless you're famous and dead
Nobody believe
The first sign of defeat
Screams and shouts are no use x2
Small quiet clutter
Melt the cries like butter
Screams and shouts are pushed down the gutter
Before I can even utter a word x2
The day never ends
And the night is not my friend
Nobody believe and nobody cares
No not unless you're famous and dead
Nobody believe
The first sign of defeat
Small quiet clutter
Melt the cries like butter
Screams and shouts are pushed down the gutter
Before I can even utter a word x3
Screams and shouts are no use x2
Nobody believes
The first sign of defeat
