Another Fine Mess

歌詞

A girl read my runes in the warm dressing room It was then that I started to think There has to be something really worth hunting I reach for another strong drink For ten lonely years That's my reward My ego and I, we have faced many dangers Fear and self loathing have never been strangers Nobody knows of the depths we have been to All the fine messes we've got ourselves into For ten lonely years That's my reward In my world far removed from the actual Safe in my small amorality capsule I cruise far aloof from the other world's laws Hiding behind tinted windows and doors I'm so tired of living, too weary to cry Too stubborn to give in, curl up and die This whole situation has, I must confess All the tell-tale signs of another fine mess I've been run aground A ship in a bottle Caught in the eye of the storm Deep in my strife Found the meaning of life You're dying the moment you're born My heart bears the scars even time can't disguise If you only knew what I've seen through these eyes Oft-times overwhelmed by the feelings of doubt I have crawled in a bottle to shut them all out Will I drown in the sweat of this chemical dream, With far too much blood in my alcohol stream? When Mr. Jack Daniels has read my last rights His friend Billy Whizz comes to turn on the lights First we were plastered in Paris Then we were frying in Greece Caught between heaven and hellfire Send for an ambulance, fetch me a priest I've been run aground A ship in a bottle Caught in the eye of the storm Deep in my strife Found the meaning of life You're dying the moment you're born "A band on ship" the captain cried We bought damnation duty-free Now we're floating with the tide The silent whales of Lunar Sea I've been run aground A ship in a bottle Caught in the eye of the storm Deep in my strife Found the meaning of life You're dying the moment you're born
