Four and 20 years ago
I come into this life
The song of a woman
And a man who lived in strife
He was tired of being poor
And he wasn't into selling door-to-door
And he worked like the devil to be more
A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul
Night after sleepless night
I place the floor, and I want to know
Why am I so alone?
Where is my woman? Can I bring her home?
Have I driven her away? Is she gone?
Morning comes to sunrise
And I'm driven to my bed
I see that it is empty, and there's devils in my head
I embrace the many-colored beast
I grow weary of the torment
Can there be no peace?
And I catch myself just wishing that my life would simply cease
