Breakdown

I woke up with the crow call, my dreams were taunting me
The rain, rain, rain was pouring down
I though I had it made, but that's not supposed to be
Now this pain, pain, pain is bearing down

I gotta lot of false confidence
Piss and wind it don't count for much
I don't owe you nothing you couldn't get for free

No, I've still got a long way to go
And I'm heading for a breakdown down the road

Was born into the sunlight, now appear to be lost
I fail, fail, fail to barely see
I went to bed with Mary and I woke up on the cross
These nail, nails, nails are burning me

Oh my God I'm so obsessed
That I don't find myself depressed
I'm chasing after anything that breathes

No, I've still got a long way to go
And I'm heading for a breakdown down the road

Greedy, needing, too misleading, On my knees I pray and pleading
These city girls will screw you in the ground
You can tell the desperation, My face drenched in perspiration
Every stumble every fall, man I carry this around

You tell me that I'm lucky, man I still have my health
Not from lack of trying but I got nothing else
It's so patronising from a richer man than me

No, I've still got a long way to go
And I'm heading for a breakdown down the road
No, I've still got a long way to go
And I'm heading for a breakdown down the road
On down the road
Come on down the road
