lyrics

Lyrics:

Sicker than now I have never been
Quicker than thou no one´s ever been
I just got lost in a circle of light
Woke up alone to a harder fight
And I said, stray dog, stray dog
Come and lead the blind out
Well I said, stray dog, stray dog
I got to rely on you

All of my accidents were sensitive and stable
To break those rules, you know, I´m never really able

Choose your words and mix ´em up to liquid fire
The essence of poetry, the taste of desire
But when you´re out of time at the end of the line
It´s just a bottled rhyme

Treasures are kept, diamonds are locked away
Money is saved to keep the fear away
Maybe you´re real, I think you really are
You´re on my account of everlasting scars
So I said, stray dog, stray dog
Won`t you come and lead the blind out
To the water´s edge, you know
I´ve got to rely on you.

Get beyound what you take away
And what you lay right down is what you give away
There is no chance to leave before you´re on the floor
There ain´t no chance to leave before you´re out the door

Choose your words and mix ´em up to remedies
Potions of notions that taste so sweet
But when you´re out of time at the end of the line
It´s just a bottled rhyme
Advice and help are rare in these moonlit times
So you better take fast what you hardly find
When you´re out of time at the end of the line
It´s just a bottled rhyme
Call me poor or a slave to beer
This one rhymes cause I´m singing for e.a.r
When you´re out of time at the end of the line
It´s just a bottled rhyme
Call me poor or a slave to fake
I´ll carry on until I bend or break
When you´re out of time at the end of the line
It´s just a bottled rhyme
It´s just a bottled rhyme

Get beyound what you take away
And what you lay right down is what you give away
There is no chance to leave before you´re on the floor
There ain´t no chance to leave before you´re out the door.
