Most of the Time - Alternate Version #2, Oh Mercy

Most of the time, I'm clear-focused all around
 Most of the time, I can keep both feet on the ground
 I can follow the path, I can read the signs
 Stay right with it when the road unwinds
 I can handle whatever I stumble upon
 I don't even notice she's gone
 Most of the time
 Most of the time, it's well understood
 Most of the time, I wouldn't change it if I could
 I can't make it all match up, I can hold my own
 I can deal with the situation right down to the bone
 I can survive, I can endure
 And I don't even think about her
 Most of the time
 Most of the time, my head is on straight
 Most of the time, I'm strong enough not to hate
 I don't build up illusion 'til it makes me sick
 I ain't afraid of confusion, no matter how thick
 I can smile in the face of mankind
 Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine
 Most of the time
 Most of the time, she ain't even in my mind
 I wouldn't know her if I saw her, she's that far behind
 Most of the time, I can't even be sure
 If she was ever with me or if I was with her
 Most of the time, I'm halfway content
 Most of the time, I know exactly where it all went
 I don't cheat on myself, I don't run and hide
 Hide from the feelings, that are buried inside
 I don't compromise and I don't pretend
 I don't even care if I ever see her again
 Most of the time
