Looking back across the years on a million unshed tears how could i have held them all
oh the price that i have paid for all the love i never made someone wrote upon the wall "How mighty is my pen if this is everywhere it's been." Yes the wine's delicious But I'm needing something stronger. I'm growing suspicious That I won't be here much longer. And it feels like I'm goin' down again Feels like I lost my only friend.
Crawling home from some saloon and all my strings are out of tune. No one's around to break my fall. No attempt was ever made And so I slowly decay. Just have a little faith in me that's all.
Oh how mighty am I then If this is everywhere I've been. As the day-light broke I cast no shadow on the wall I will desintigrate until there's nothing left at all. And it feels like I'm goin' down again. Feels like I lost my only friend.
And I never thought I'd see the day My heros all became psychotics. My drugs are all expensive exotics. Now my blood is thick with antibiotics. So I toss the coin to fate, it's only right. And I take no blame so I can sleep so tight. You know that out of mind is also out of sight.
As the day-light broke I cast no shadow on the wall. I pass the closed apartment doors And rows along the halls. And it feels like I'm goin' down again. Feels like I lost my only friend.
