LYRIC FOR SALE

By S. Tsembides (AKA Mummydog)

I had way too much to drink
I can hardly even think
I've been lying on this sidewalk much too long
I try and I try but I don't think I'm ready
To leave that jump steady alone
I can't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
And leave this old life on its own

My friends all say how sad
He's lost everything he had
Still, he won't leave that bottle alone
I wish someone would call, I live right down the hall
It don't matter cause I can't find my phone
I don't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
And leave this old world on its own

CHORUS
Driften down the road, driften so I don't explode
One day I'll ease my heavy load
I hope you can be found, I hope you're still around
To see me when I put that bottle down

Somedays I can't find the door
So I just lie here on the floor
Wasting my whole life away
I know most of the time, I'm just flying blind
It don't matter cause I live from day to day
I don't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
And leave this old world on its own

Some nights I cry myself to sleep
I know I'm in way too deep
Still I can't leave that drink alone
I try to change but it seems just out of range
I'm hungry like a dog that's lost its bone
I don't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
and leave this old world on its own

Chorus
Driften down the road, driften so I don't explode
One day I'll ease my heavy load
I hope you can be found, I hope you're still around
To see me when I put that bottle down

My girlfriends all have run, they say that I'm no fun
It don't matter I don't need them anyway
Sometimes I don't know day from night
I'm like a bird that can't take flight
I don't know if I can make It on my own
I don't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
And leave this old world on its own

Sometimes I put up a fight
Then I find myself alone at night
I've whittled my conscious to the bone
One day I'll check myself in rehab
And then I'll take a stab
At dealing with this life on my own
Till then I don't do no heavy lifting
I just want to keep on driften
And leave this old world on its own
