I'm Bleeding ... again
By Alex
Why can't I see it comin' - there's no writing on the wall
no focus in my blindeye - I prepare again to fall
it means nothin' to me-a memory that doesn't exist
taunted by the blackout whose temptation I cannot resist
so set yourself up fool for the drunken deja-vu
where a smokin' gun is what's waitin' for you ...
I'm bleeding again though I really don't know why
I'm bleeding again - couldn't think even if I tried
I'm bleeding again through the window pane
I'm bleeding again as she waves me goodbye
I've bin' cut once before n' despite that initial sting
I've already began to explore - already opened another door
but my swagger continues to stagger-will I ever plug this drain
put a cork inside my noose-put a bullet in my brain
or surrender to the truth - what truth-truth about what ...
'one's too many n' a thousand's not enough'
n' what's in-between has yet to be seen 'cause I've yet to come clean
I'm bleeding again - so why's your face outta joint
I'm bleeding again - don't ya know it's not nice to point
but I'm still bleeding again - so I'm still pleading insane
My cup runeth over n' over-gotta stem the flow
no more come undone days - broad horizons on the horizon
gettin' it any way it lays - cheating her n' I one more chance
so what's it gonna be baby-cold gin or true romance
so set yourself up fool for the drunken deja-vu
little lady I've gone too far to turn around for you ...
I'm bleeding again - my picture now very unclear
I'm bleeding again - please bear no tears my dear
I'm bleeding again - I'll never find the fear
'cause I'm bleeding again n' again n' again ...
