the truth is in the title .....Just me and the acoustic mic'ed up
Well when I close my eyes i'll tell you what I see
There a negative image of you and me
A distant dream or is it fantasy
Its all tied up in my insanity
Rolling around inside this empty mind
A Jackson pollack in design
A splash of piss against the wall
I know nobody can have it all
On my hands and knees I start to crawl

The demon drink calls inside of me
Telling me I'm no good not even for me
I should of died
I should be dead
I should be lying in my bed
I squints my eyes I can not see
There a voice inside of me
Your no angel
Your no angel
your no angel
But your free

I find myself upon  my knees praying up to the great entity
Asking for that little bit of help to try and find that inner me
Getting nothing in reply not even a touch of sympathy
I fall back spread eagles wide
Looking up to that beautiful sky
The starry night is wild

Well yesterday was just another day
I spent the whole day wild running round and away
Inside my head inside dreams nothing was reality
There was no stop only go
the red light flashed but didn't know
I was all tied up in my insanity

Rolling around inside this empty mind of mine
A Jackson pollack
in design
A splash of piss against the wall
I know nobody can have it all
On my hands and knees I start to crawl

The demon drink calls inside of me
It takes me right out of my mind
I should have died
I should be dead
I should be lying in my bed
I squints my eyes I can not see
a voice inside my head says
Your no angel
Your no angel
your no angel
But your free
 
Well when I close my eyes ill tell you what I see
There a negative image of you and me
A distant dream or is it fantasy
Its all tied up in my insanity
Rolling around inside this empty mind
A Jackson pollack in design
A splash of piss against the wall
I know nobody can have it all
On my hands and knees I start to crawl

Fantastic song....like a long form Bob Dylan classic......very impressive to spit something like this out in such short order..........wild and stunning

I really appreciate how much I can relate to this song. And with "your no angel But your free" feels like a bright spot given all the trouble and is perfect.

Wow Trevor, you said/sang a whole lot in a little over three minutes....excellent lyrics! The guitar strumming was tight. I think you channeled the spirit of a young Dylan here....so well done!

Shades of Dylan!  This is great. Love the lyrics and the way you sing them.

By and large, jazz has always been like the kind of a man you wouldn't want your daughter to associate with.
