...skin on my knees is wearing thin - seems I've been crawling all my life
took some bad advice and with my simple mind - I believed in all the lies
Till the head I was born with - was all filled up with shit
All the politics off the tv sets I believed in all of it
And I tried all of the medicine
I tried of all the books
Tried a new location
I tried a new look
I drank a lot of alcohol
I tried just to forget
I did a lot of drugs, it seems they havent kicked in yet
I tried just using tape - they say it works on anything
rolled rolled rolled but couldnt find the end
I tried to shave my legs one day but that was just for fun
But looking back I think that that's the only thing I've done
Until I got this guitar - taught myself to play
Wrote down my own lyrics and sung them my own way
No I'm not a source of comfort no I'm not the voice of hope
Everything I've written is just another joke...
...another - joke!
And I dont have any answers - nor do I have an excuse
And all my life I will appologize
I dont have advice - have no advice - dont have advice.
have no advice - dont have advice - have no advice
