Loneliness & Heartache

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It can strike the very poorest or a rich man It will haunt an atheist as any Christian So many bodies ache and groan in dire needing And pretty soon, there is this habit that needs feeding [Chorus] It's a dent in the skin, you're sliding it in That's how it go, go, goes It never seemed nice; it's a difficult vice That's how you throw, throw, throw Your life away; I've got you today Tomorrow, I don't know, no, no It's hard to get whole when you're losing your soul [Verse 2] The first attempt, it might be caused by pain and need Or just a little bit of morbid curiosity The boredom strikes, or else it's loneliness and heartache And soon enough, you're gonna wish you never started [Chorus] It's a dent in the skin, you're sliding it in That's how it go, go, goes It never seemed nice; it's a difficult vice That's how you throw, throw, throw Your life away; I've got you today Tomorrow, I don't know, no, so So hard to get whole when you're losing your soul [Chorus] It's a dent in the skin, you're sliding it in That's how it go, go, goes It never seemed nice; it's a difficult vice That's how you throw, throw, throw Your life away; I've got you today Tomorrow, I don't know, no, so So hard to get whole when you're losing your soul [Bridge] Scabby sores and rotten abscesses be itchin' And now there are no metal spoons up in the kitchen When every minute's crawling by and full of hatred And you're forced out on the corner for a paycheck [Outro] I'll find you; I'll take you away! Don't die yet, don't die today! Die today? Don't die today! Die today? Don't die today!
