Six Miles Deep

Seven nights and seven days
Since my baby went away
Now I'm sitting in the ruins of a broken world
All those poisoned words I said
Must be some demon in my head
Oh honey, won't you come back one more time?

I hear those footsteps walking outside my door
I feel disconnected, I'm sick inside
Ain't got no future, just a twisted sense of pride

I've seen the sun rise in Berlin
I've been to Paris in the spring
And I ain't gonna play that way no more
Life ain't easy, life is tough
I drink that whiskey and shoot that stuff
I'm getting by, but this ain't rock & roll

Every day I just sit here in my room
Dead in the water, caught in a spin
There ain't no cure for the state of mind I'm in

I'm feeling empty, I'm cold inside
But I ain't thinking of suicide
I'm just sitting here doing time
My hands are shaking, I got the fear
The demon whispers in my ear
I need protection, nothing feels right at all

I get so lonesome living here by myself
Feel like a killer, feel like a fool
I'm just a shadow of that ghost walking in my shoes
