Alone

I took the pills like Alice
And I fell into a web
Stuck inside a story-book
That I've never read
I knew I had it coming
It's a long time overdue
The Devil inside me wants to paint you black and blue
Your fingers taste like ashtray
My soul's dark, I'm pitch black
I took my place beside you
A knife pressed against my back
I thought I heard you praying
Please come with me towards the light
But love don't stop the vermin
Chewin' through my brain at night

I've got two black eyes and a microphone
I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home
When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb
My thoughts slow down and my work is done
Then I feel
I feel
I feel
Alone

I've seen the other side
I know what lies beyond the veil
I've conversed with the spirits
I've learned tricks I'll never tell
My heart calls for Armageddon
And I pray for nuclear light
We are all in Hell, and it don't change on the other side
I'm bleeding from the sunshine
As I sit upon my throne
I'm drinking from my glass cup
An alcoholic's tome
While I'm waiting for the moonlight
To slip into my form
My eyes are the gateway, but there is no one home.

I've got two black eyes and a microphone
I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home
When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb
My thoughts slow down and my work is done
Then I feel
I feel
I feel
Alone

I've got two black eyes and a microphone
I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home
When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb
My thoughts slow down and my work is done
Then I feel
I feel
I feel
Alone
