|
I never wanted to be a part of it |
|
You never asked me if I'm still doin' all right |
|
You were so blind |
|
You taught me a lesson and I'm still rehearsing it |
|
I tried to find a simple answer that night |
|
But I was lame in my mind |
|
Sweet voices, more excuses |
|
Damn, it took too long |
|
You ate me, tasted me |
|
And spit me out |
|
Tonight the smoke did clear |
|
I saved my soul in the easiest way |
|
I stay till I dive deep |
|
It's the only place where salvation's cheap |
|
I had no money for the cheapest aeroplane |
|
Believe me I would surely stay in the clouds |
|
To be lost and not found |
|
Just like that guy I would spread my wings and fly |
|
But I'm not Sammy and I ain't no bird so I stay |
|
At the Emerald Bar |
|
I won't be chasing your dreams that made me sick |
|
Being with you poisoned my days |
|
I won't be waiting for yesterdays to come |
|
Just one more drink that's the ultimate way |
