Wayworn

cocaine nightmare
crackheads' dream
i lived your life, i know what it means
i slept my days, caressed my nights
silvery, satin, silken stars
and i fell, so i stood again
my sweet nightmare held me up
symphony of feeling, pain in my head
oh my nightmare, wish i were dead
sweet the passion, my agony burns
i slept 'till tomorrow, i hate your words
and i chewed the bars of this cage i walked in
my nightmare now, i'll never win
