Here is the story as plain as I can make it
I’m just telling it like it is
I spent my life pursuing some kind of truth
Drawing my own analyses
But what did it get me
A whole bunch of grief
And there ain’t nothing
Gonna give me relief
And if you ask what became of me
It was mostly all nitty gritty
If you ask what became of me
Let me tell you it ain’t pretty
Here is the place that I have got to
And it’s nothing I ever really wanted
It is ugly, it feels like bad touch
It’s dark as pitch and looks kinda haunted
You can think
That should I be grateful
But what I see
Is fucking hateful
Here is the world that I live in
It’s a dark place bereft of hope
There ain’t no light
No sunny tomorrow
Just a noose at the end of a rope
Not talking metaphor
I mean it literally
One day I was here
Then it was the end of me
