One Of These Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
First I gave up and ignored me
As for love well that’s another story
I got drunk off wait and sees
Found that I’m really in a war with me
Now slow down
I said I’m gonna get up
I want it bad but enough’s enough
I want to see how my own voice sounds
I got my ex-ray eye
That sees inside every door
Yes I’ve seen enough
I don’t need anybody these days
To say what I am for
I saw those fear filled eyes
That kept me tied to the floor
Yes I’ve seen enough
I won’t forget about it these days
Anymore
Wait a minute here
Where’s the glory
I was sold by all that went before me
I woke up
And now I can see
Down to the river
Gonna wash me clean
Now slow down
I said I’m gonna get up
I want it bad but enough’s enough
I want to see how my own voice sounds
I got my ex-ray eye
That sees inside every door
Yes I’ve seen enough
I don’t need anybody these days
To say what I am for
I saw those fear filled eyes
That kept me tied to the floor
Yes I’ve seen enough
I won’t forget about it these days
Livin’ for these days
Oh my God
What did I do
There’s chains on my legs
And there’s shackles on my shoes
I laid my wishes
All up for you
