lyrics

Used to take a journey on the stratosphere express
A little anaesthetic to alleviate the stress
I volunteered my service to the highest of the high
But I’ve been ...

Wrestled to the floor
I’ve got no substance anymore
The stuff I was about
Is slowly draining out
So I’m down for the count on the floor

As a sole proprietor in soliciting delight
I would seek that shit out like a moth pursuing light
Counting down the days between the rapture and the joy
But I’ve been ...

Wrestled to the floor
The sun won’t heat me anymore
I used to take that ride
Now I’m halted in my stride
And I’m down for the count on the floor

I don’t want to hear about terrific places
Suffer the felicitous and joyful faces
Watching happy campers with no logic traces sucks

Acknowledging the truth is only realistic
Just about the opposite of fatalistic
I can never be completely solipsistic now
Not now

Wrestled to the floor
I’m just not a player anymore
It’s difficult to dwell
With no water in the well
So I’m down for the count on the floor
