Patrick Parker - The End Lyrics

Another night spend just crying in bed
I can't help thinking I'll blow of my head
Fit me for my wings, can't you see I'm unwell
Murder all the mirrors, can't look at myself

Maybe I need venom
Happiness is seldom
Hope I fall when I'm flying
Get busy getting better or get busy dying

Worthless, mirthless, shell of a man
And I would spiral even harder if I asked for a hand
Every day I'm closer to meeting my demise
I'm always getting older but never very wise
My daddy was a drinker and I don't know what to be
So I'll make another song singing "woe is me"

Maybe I need venom
Happiness is seldom
Hope I fall when I'm flying
Get busy getting better or get busy dying

Could I be a martyr for my own right brain?
Would anybody listen if I just took all the pain away
I'd send you my regrets in a song but
No melody could ever right this wrong

Maybe I need venom
Happiness is seldom
Hope I fall when I'm flying
Get busy getting better or get busy dying

Maybe I need venom
Happiness is seldom
Hope I fall when I'm flying
Get busy getting better or get busy dying
