Slow motion deception
Total lack of prescription
On back alley streets with bags at your feet
Waiting for investigation
Free-form expression
Over dose on your perception
In the market place without any face
Makes up all your indiscretions
Feeble minded indecisions
Busted up by misdirection
Running down the street from the cop on the beat
Just escaped a close inspection
Brow beaten depression
No talent intervention
Gotta dig myself of all the debris
Gotta get a new connection
You discover danger, really thoughtless deeds
Stark and angry strangers turn you on to disease
Will you cash & carry yourself into deep freeze?
Smoking something potent crying down on your knees
Walking into the valley with a fistful of bills
Walk out of the alley with a headful of thrills
Climbing out the window toward the ladder to hell
Walking thru a corridor of acrid smells
Search for stapled messiah
On the back road to desire
Load the stash and put the flint to the match
Jump from flame into the fire
In dream world choir
Sing the notes to fuel the fire
Count the sheep as you're nodding to sleep
Could you get it any higher?
