Slumberjack

And I can't go on

this situation unbearable

and with one quick stroke of the wand

I choke my judgment is terrible

not even bringing the life

to every bright light

could keep me up

all through the night

I was to fast to act

I fell short on tact

I knew I'd never win my fights

This heavy breathing

I clench my fists

can you read the fine print

quit speaking in tongues

you son of a gun

you know I'm your number one

It makes no difference

Its time to go home

they want to hold us down

but the show must go on

and now that I've got you on the spot

and I'm too far gone in this game to let go

I know I got you bothered and hot

what I'm about to tell you

is straight from my heart

I'm at square one

so don't even start

I'll take the stage on the world's behalf

my words will tear you apart

bloody knuckles and noses

won't keep you from keeping

your hands to yourself

as I lay dreaming

Take what's left, it's all I have

This life my be the death of me
