The Wasp & The Jar (Live At Shepherd's Bush Empire 2009)

What makes me think,
Every day I need a drink.
Another drop goes down,
I get that feeling I'm gonna drown.

Taking off, like a plane,
Heading down the runway.
Shivers down my spine
Always feel the same way.
Got a head like an atomic bomb,
Waiting for the explosion.

I feel like a wasp in a jar,
Buzzing 'round not getting very far,
Staring in to oblivion, with a bottle in my grasp,
Never in a hurry, sinking fast.

Taking off, like a plane,
Heading down the runway.
Shivers down my spine
Always feel the same way.
Got a head like an atomic bomb,
Waiting for the explosion.

What is it that ticks my brain,
That pulls on the reigns.
What is it that ticks my brain,
Pulls on the reigns.

This merry-go-round won't stop,
No one can help me get off.
I'm slipping away, feeling sly,
I've no good in my life.

Taking off, like a plane,
Heading down the runway.
Shivers down my spine
Always feel the same way.
Got a head like an atomic bomb,
Waiting for the explosion.

What is it that ticks my brain,
That pulls on the reigns?
What is it that ticks my brain,
Pulls on the reigns?
