I ain't gonna lie
I ain't never tried
once in my life
fat and white and high
puppet
I can see the strings
I know I'm nothing
but a speck of dust floating by
caught in a sunbeam
stole my wisdom
from the gods kitchen
stove fire light my weed
now I'm tied to a mountainside
low times indeed
and the gulls are comin'
to peck out my eyes
at the end of each
and every night
at sunrise
O can't you hear their wings a-beatin'?
tonight's the night they're gonna eat me
tonight's the night
tonight's the night
I got big things
been promised to me
finally
my life will be
hard enough
to write about
and interesting
to somebody
outside myself
every morning I awake and
give my chains a shake
rattlin' like two battlin' die
on a losin' stake
halfway up this peak
I see everything
history of humanity's
laid out in front of me
at my fingertips
but I squander it
and still my punishment eludes me
comforting, I guess
to find stability in routine
so here I sit
eyes shot lips split
at the end of eternity
Zeus visits me
and asks me what I'm doing
do I need any help?
huh-- I did this to myself
what did the you do today
was it history in the making
or did you waste your time away
what did the you do today
was it history in the making
or did you waste your time away
