• Rock Bottom

A woman told me years ago the happier I'd be the closer I could get to what I want to say
And I basically agreed and told her that we'd wait and see but all this time I've just been drifting further away
I thought I sailed my ship of discontent across a sea of good intent but I realise now I barely left the dock
And here I am washed up in this hotel room somewhere that I won't remember with Do Not Disturb sign hung over the lock

You never hit rock bottom, friend, there's always more to sink
And the long run is further than you think

Turns out the world does not owe me a living and somewhere I learned that fun is winning - such a shame as all I do is lose
Yeah everybody's got to work and apparently being a jerk is the only way you'll ever get to choose
You see, I'm doing it now, this isn't how this song was meant to go, and every time I have a drink or light a joint
It's not my primary intention to find chemical redemption, it's just digression and distraction from my point - which is -

You never hit rock bottom, friend, there's always more to sink
And the long run is further than you think

After twice around the world and a couple times around the block, I found just this one little reason to rejoice
No-one gets to judge all of the stuff inside my head and I'm at liberty to have a second voice
So I'm going to stuff my pockets while I can, my clothes go in a suitcase and all my dreams get put up on the shelf
Take one step forward, two steps back and switch to second person and it's ok that I am talking to myself

Like -

You never hit rock bottom, friend, there's always more to sink
And the long run is further than you think
