lyrics

The Wrong End Of The Gun

Put some money on the game, 'cause you never know
They're never gonna win, 'cause the spirit's low, low, low
Oh nothing works, nothing works, nothing works around here
I lost it yesterday, and I'm about to lose it again

There's a river of noise running through my brain
Like an endless ring that slowly drives me insane
All the lights are on but all I see is black
I could use some poison to clear my goddamn head

And it kicks in
Like a fever

Oh oh misery
As strong as gravity
Oh oh sorrow
Like a shadow hanging over me

In this 24 hour run
I’m at the wrong end of the gun

There's always some mad stuff going on
Always a hitch, something going all wrong
And there's no music when the needle drops
Just the dreadful sound of ticking clocks

And it kicks in
Like a fever

Oh oh misery
As strong as gravity
Oh oh sorrow
Like a show hanging over me
Oh oh misery
You're not a stranger to me
Oh oh sorrow
Like a shadow clinging on to me

And it kicks in
Like a fever

Oh oh misery
As strong as gravity
Oh oh sorrow
Like a show hanging over me
Oh oh misery
Come on now, set me free
Oh oh sorrow
Don't come back tomorrow

In this 24 hour run
I’m at the wrong end of the gun
I’m at the wrong end of the gun

I hang on to my ego
Pretend this ain't real
But up jumps the devil
And he goes for the kill
The noise it increases
Until I give in
As the level goes up
I’m taking the pill
And nothing looks real
Nothing looks real
Nothing looks real
Nothing looks real
