It slipped my mind,
And for a time,
I felt completely free.
Oh what a troubled,
Silent, poor boy,
A pawn into a queen.
I laugh now,
But later's not so easy.
I've gotta stop,
The will is strong,
But the flesh is weak.
Guess that's it,
I've made my bed,
And I'm lying in it.
I'm still hanging on,
Bird upon the wires,
I fall between the waves.
Ooooohhhhhhh
I avoid your gaze,
I turn out of phase,
A pawn into a queen.
Ooooohhhhhhh
I laugh now,
But later's not so easy.
I've gotta stop,
The will is strong,
But the flesh is weak.
Guess that's it,
I've made my bed,
And I'm lying in it.
But it's eating me up
But it's eating me up
And it's eating me up (if I get free from the snares that I'm in)
And it's eating me up (if I get free from the snares that I'm in)
And it's eating me up (if I get free from the snares that I'm in)
Ooooohhhhhhh
