I was walking down the river
playing solitary quiver
I was thinking about a million different lives.

She came dancing up a mountain
spread her whiteness like a fountain
and an hint of broken turquoise in her eyes.

She came all the way to say I didnt stand
a single chance the state that I was in

I said:
"Your sould is a-swaying".
She said:
"Hey thats a pretty saying, but unfortunately it is not true".

She said:
"Youre just looking for another to love you".

Now we all know the world is dying
and expenses multiplying
but you could try to take it easy too.
Let me take you for a ride
I will take you for a ride
Cause in time
youll be mine
when youre mine
itll be oh so fine yeah

At the time I wasnt feeling that good.
At the time I wasnt feeling that good.
I wasnt longing for a strange delight
I wasnt flashing on the dark of night
I wasnt going for no periodic mood.

I wasnt suffering no odd decease
I never thought of it as no unease
but when it called me I just had to let it loose.
It never made me wonder or even think
just merely tapping tapping on my instinct
it left me there but I wasnt left to choose.
Now I heard stories about this kind of thing
it haphazardly just sucks you in,
makes you do stuff you never thought youd do

One night it drove me to despair
What if anybody had seen me there?
to this day I still wonder how they knew.

They started spreading rumors about my state
you know how it goes around this place,
now and then they just need someone to screw.

My senses numb but I could feel
four, five years been taken out of me.
If youd ask me, theres no way I could prove.

The smell of hysteria was chemical,
the air around me thick and physical,
my mind was racing but myself I couldnt move.
It had me running, running, running...

Now I heard stories this kind of thing,
it doesnt lose it just lets you win
with a little bit of luck you dont come out too bruised.

Such anger that I couldnt vent
so much energy I couldnt spend
it would have fucked me over if I hadnt cut it loose. YEAH.
I wasnt suffering no odd decease
I never thought of it as no unease,
next time it calls me Ill be ready CAUSE I KNOW.

Ill be ready
Ill be ready
