lyrics

I've reached some dead ends
And cried over dead friends
Strangers made their passes
When I showed up cashless
And told them, my words were all I had

I've lost good love to petty theft
And lost my voice to cigarettes
My actions caught up fast
As I fumbled in my craft
Traded my audience for whatever was on tap

But now I must confess
Things no longer seem like my death sentence
I put some views to rest
Paranoia never got me far
It was rooted in regret
I languished on the bottom shelf
'Til I was seeing stars

Most everyone has seen
A loved one turn mean
Words can't be taken back
My mind rewinds the track
When trust has been tampered with
Not much remains intact

But now I must confess
Things no longer seem like my death sentence
I put some views to rest
Paranoia never got me far
It was rooted in regret
I languished on the bottom shelf
'Til I was seeing stars

But now I must confess
Things no longer seem like my death sentence
I put some views to rest
Paranoia never got me far
It was rooted in regret
I languished on the bottom shelf
'Til I was seeing stars

I languished on the bottom shelf
'Til I was seeing stars
