Recorded on Tascam MKIII, 2002

lyrics

The days’ demons surround you until you pour another drink. Quitting might be easy if you didn’t have to think. But now you wear your sorrows just like they’re new tattoos, trying to kill the hours without the hours killing you. But no one’s gonna catch you when you fall off the ridge where you hide from all the people in that city where you live. You’ll eventually get stuck there, too afraid to cross the bridge. And no one’s gonna help you if you cannot accept yourself as-is. Now you walk the city, knowing you’ll never get it right. Looking for someone to tie you up in knots tonight ‘cuz you haven’t felt this empty since only god knows when, wondering how on earth you ever botched things up again. But no one’s gonna catch you when you fall off the ridge where you hide from all the people in that city where you live. You’ll eventually get stuck there, too afraid to cross the bridge. And no one’s gonna help you if you cannot accept yourself as-is. It’s no wonder you don’t even bother when you’re burning up and scared of water. We know nobody taught you how but, kid, you got teeth so use them now. ‘Cuz no one’s gonna catch you when you fall off the ridge where you hide from all the people in that city where you live. You’ll eventually get stuck there, too afraid to cross the bridge. And no one’s gonna help you if you cannot accept yourself as-is. And I cannot accept myself as-is. No I’ll never accept myself as-is. I can never accept myself as-is.
