Made To Be

Here I am



Never wasted a day of my life



I think I've made out alright

But they make me out to be something I am not



Standing I fall, Sitting I break

Laying I stall, Praying I take



Now and again and sometimes still

I find a part of my own will



Leading me back to the same places

Clocks and numbers, dates and faces



Leap froggers don't catch up, to the person in sight

Raging bulls will die in their very own fight



I will run myself through my own trusted sword

justice will return to me on my own accord



My pills I'd ask for Rose to deliver

Acetylcholine my friends, is killing my liver



I can't even smile at an old friend

Can't walk the mile all the way through the end



Can't teach the wrestlers moves that I leanred

Good side in me that never had turned



Promices kept Promices lost

Friendships weakened Friendships tossed



Following footsteps cemented in glue

then realizing the footsteps are too big for my shoe



Believeing I'm walking in my own wet cement

Slips off to reveal mud covered pavement



I can't lay tracks

I can't leave a mark



Its too misty tonight

out here alone in the dark



Nothing stays sober

People or things

often kept guessing with surefire stings



They didn't lock me up

They just locked me out



They opened my ego

and left without doubt



Too small to comsume

To small to enjoy



company

company

girl and boy



I 'll find a place to rest my head

warmed by fire and a bed

taken in without a clue

when I was locked and busted too



gave me drink, gave me reason

gave me a holiday

from this slip-shod season



Made to be,

Been Designed

Lost the things I once did find

Put away on this day

one more for the great devine

last call for dear old paul

lets hope he finds his spine
