Days are long And the nights so cold Down here in the gutter It eats at your soul I inch myself above to fall a foot back down Addicted to my pain And never seeking help Have you seen seen purgatory's light Shining from beyond It waits for me to die No use to even try and fight My fate's been set in stone So don't pray for me tonight And if there's such a thing as a being from above It's laughing at me now Don't tell me who to trust I won't accept a thing that refuses to be seen The only thing that's real is a needle in my vain And my story shall be told of a man who fell to earth Not knowing how to love, or a thing about self worth He escaped so many times from a reality of hurt That his mind just fell apart, never to return
