I''m crazy You know, a man on a hangman''s noose Fright lives in my bone marrow Jacob fighting God face to face Limping away with his pharmaceuticals Soma and Oxycodone Just another mutilated man of suffering Never dead to my torment I cry to be loose of my birth Enough out of the broken rhyme My clock is losing time Running away lives in my veins It''s a hostile time in the world And I''m a sensory gauge Every limb electric From the Ice House and County Jail I''m a vomiting machine Dragging my ball and chain Intuitional eyesight Song drags on in midday sun Don''t want a cross Just a noose I''ve always been a sick bandit Rage is my age Stage is naked And the audience is gone... |
