I was,
is as I am I leave no room for the other man he's leaving
Oh, he's out of town
And as I speak, I watch you slip
From day to day, from trip to trip
You're fading
Oh, you're going down
I got a buzz, but it hit my head
And I crashed on mine and
woke up dead
Listen never again, will I do what you say?
I used to be such fun, but now you're mad, scared,
afraid
Lie in state, and look depressed
In order to receive your
guests who love you
And ask you why
But they have no wish to comprehend
They only want to be your friend
To tell you
Their transparent lies
Because they need a voice
that you can't sustain
Because they don't want to
know about your inner pain
And they're getting so tired
of the games you play
Used to be so much fun, but now your mind's gone gray
As I am, I will remain I will
not pass this way again
And I mean it
I've made up my mind
And if by chance our paths should cross
I guess your gain will be my loss
But only briefly
See, I have no time
You get a buzz when you hear your name
When you see your face in a wind of pain
But the face you see
doesn't look your way
You used to be such fun,
but now you're mucker -brained
I said, you're mucker
-brained now, baby
Oh, you're mucker -brained
Mucker -brained, baby
You'll find I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid
And when you're with me
I'm not afraid
I'm afraid
I'm not afraid
