thenitch

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 up on my wall.
How mighty is my pen-
if this is everywhere its been.

Yes, the wines delicous but I'm needing something stronger.
I'm growing suspicous that I won't be here much longer.
Feels like i'm going down again
Feels like I lost my only friend.

Crawling home from saloon and all my strings are outta tune.
No ones around to break my fall.
No attempt was ever made
And so I slowly decayed.
Just have a little faith in me, thats all.

Oh how mighty am I then?
If this is everywhere I've been.

As the daylight broke I cast no shadow on the wall.
I willed this city great until theres nothing left at all.
Feels like i'm going down again.
Feels like I lost my only friend.

And I never thought I'd see the day,
heros all became phycotics
my drugs are all expensive exotics.
Now my blood is thick with antibiotics.
So I toss a coin to fate- its only right.
And I take no blame so I can slep so tight.
You know that out of mind is also out of sight.

As the daylight broke I cast no shadow on the wall.
I pass the closed apartment door in rows across the hall.
Feels like I'm going down again.
Feels like I lost my only friend.
