lyrics

Shame shame shame
What a way to get some kicks
Willing but unable
An unstable unreliable dick

Sat 'fore the bottle when I see the light
At the end of the tunnel
At the end of the night
When the sun comes up
I'm dumb and I'm flawed
And I am a god

In the morning I'll take a short one
To quell a shake
I ain't got much to give to this world
I'm just a thief on the take

Waves of nauseating paranoia
And I won't let them in
I'll piss on the sparks
Before a fire can begin
And I'll never dry off
I'm dumb and I'm flawed
And I am a god

I found poetry on the barstool
But I've forgotten it there
There down and under the volcano
And almost falling off my chair
Soon I'll be lying in a puddle of myself
Or I'll be dying in a stranger's house

Day dreaming as it hits
I flash back to something I tried to forget
I've been runnin' in denial and in style
Now here I sit with my regrets

The end is nigh
And the money's run out
Driftin' terrified and filled with doubt
Amidst the failure and the strife
And I'm expected to be honest and right

When I'm wrapped up in the circle of...
The circle of life
