Alone

I took the pills like Alice and I fell into a web Stuck inside a story-book That I've never read I knew I had it coming It's a long time overdue The Devil inside me wants to paint you black and blue Your fingers taste like ashtray My soul's dark, I'm pitch black I took my place beside you A knife pressed against my back I thought I heard you praying Please come with me towards the light But love don't stop the vermin Chewin' through my brain at night I've got two black eyes and a microphone I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb My thoughts slow down and my work is done Then I feel I feel I feel Alone I've seen the other side I know what lies beyond the veil I've conversed with the spirits I've learned tricks I'll never tell My heart calls for Armageddon And I pray for nuclear light We are all in Hell, and it don't change on the other side I'm bleeding from the sunshine As I sit upon my throne I'm drinking from my glass cup An alcoholic's tome While I'm waiting for the moonlight To slip into my form My eyes are the gateway, but there is no one home. I've got two black eyes and a microphone I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb My thoughts slow down and my work is done Then I feel I feel I feel Alone I've got two black eyes and a microphone I dance with the Devil when nobody's at home When the meds kick in and my mind goes numb My thoughts slow down and my work is done Then I feel I feel I feel Alone
