Used to Feel like a Smoker, Shivering in the Cold

                                           
Waiting Outside the Bar, Till the openers over.

                                                 
Now you feel like a drinker, Twenty Days off the Sauce

                                                
Down at the liqour store, Tryin to call your sponsor

                               
Used to feel like a Forest Fire burning

                         
But now, now you feel like a child

                          
Throwing tantrums for your turn.

 - 

                                                   
Used to Sound like a prophet and everyone wanted to know

                                                      
how you could tell the truth without loosing the soft glow

                                            
Now you feel like salesman, closing another deal.

                                               
Or some drunk fisherman, chasing after the white whale

                                
used to feel like a forest fire burning

                                                         
but now, now you feel like a child throwing tantrums for your turn

                              
used to feel like a prodigal returning

                                                        
but now, now you hate what you made and you want to watch it burn

              
want to watch it burn
