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 [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/billy_bob_thornton/always_countin.html ]
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

Billy bob thornton suffers from an obsessive compulsive disorder, resulting from childhood abuse (according to himself). (i wake up achin, i count the pains, the storm aint breaking, i cant count the rain)
always countin talks about how his disorder has manifested in him- through numbers. (got some pills. By my bed, supposed to eat them, but i count them instead... Ive been playing with a loaded deck, the cards are claiming im a nervous wreck)
he has a need to keep counting and associates people, certain times in his life, with certain numbers..
