Diminished - R.E.M.

I watched you fall

I think I pushed

Maybe I’m crazy

Maybe diminished

Maybe I’m innocent

Maybe I’m finished

Maybe I blacked out

How do I play this?

I will give my best today

I will give myself away

I have never hurt anything

Is the jury wavering?

Do they know I sing?

Maybe I’m crazy

Maybe diminished

How do I How do I play this?

Jealous lover, self desense

Protective brother, chemical dependence

I’ll consult the I-Ching

I’ll consult the TV

Ouija, oblique strategies

I’ll consult the law book for precedents

Can I charm the jury?

I will give my best today

I will give myself away

I have never hurt anything

Is the justice wavering?

Does she know I sing

That song?

Sing along (I will never hurt anything)

Sing along (I will never hurt anything)

Sing along (I will never hurt anything)

I watched you fall

I think I pushed

Maybe they’ll see me Maybe they’ll say,

«I can see the truth in his statement

smallpox blanket?

No way»

Can I charm the jury, my defense?

Maybe I’m crazy

Maybe diminished

Maybe I loved you

Baby I loved you

Baby I loved you

Baby I’m finished

(repeat chorus)

I have given myself away

I have given my best today

I have never hurt anything

Is the justice wavering?

Does she know I loved you?

Does she know I loved you?

Does she know I sing?
