[verse 1]
I'm left and right; in between
I'm lying low on the ceiling
A floating stone in the sea
Of things I've seen
Running somewhere while
This city runs through me

[chorus]
I don't believe in misery
I don't believe that you're near
Islands of myself
Islands of myself
Islands of myself
Can you help me?

[verse 2]
I'm right and wrong; reluctant king
I'm working on reconciling
All the problems that reside inside of me
Dreaming sleepless while
This city dreams of peace
Dreaming sleepless while
This city dreams of peace

[chorus]
I don't believe in misery
I don't believe that you're near
Islands of myself
Islands of myself
Islands of myself
Can you help me?
