Woken up on mornings such as this |
|
Thought exactly the same as I'm thinking now. |
|
Every night for a year I've slept alone. |
|
Cold damp room looks worse than me, no no no |
|
Got a fear of death that creeps on every night. |
|
I know I won't die soon, but then again I might, |
|
Water down the drain, I'm wasting away. |
|
Doctors can't help the ghost of a man that's me |
|
Water down the drain goes to the sea, |
|
The pattern of my life keeps a-haunting me. |
|
Moisture from the ocean fills the sky, |
|
Come on down to the ground as the time goes by |
|
I never found out the reason why |
|
My parents had to lie |
|
About the place that I was born |
|
Or from my hometown I was torn |
|
At the tender age of four |
|
I was livin' by homemade law |
