There's always numbers
In my head
A countin hunger
That must be fed

Got some pills
By my bed
Supposed to eat 'em
But I count them instead

Am I crazy
Am I mad
I've run out of fingers
They're all I had

[Chorus:]

I'm always countin'
I'm always countin'
Only trouble is
I'm countin on me

I wake up achin'
I count the pains
The storm ain't breakin'
I can't count the rain

I count the spectators
But the crowd just grows
I'm a speculator
Of the highs and lows

I've been playing
With a loaded deck
But the card are claiming
I'm a nervous wreck

[Chorus:]

I'm always countin'
I'm always countin'
Only trouble is
I'm countin on me
