Preview off the 'My #9' album by Kippysmuse

lyrics

I grew up alone in a crowded place
My window so clouded and common place
Couldn't see the signs
Everyone else saw
Like a blind man walking; willingly through a door

Chained myself to cigarettes and boozy perfume
Trying to hide an elephant in the middle of the room
I got my pipe and slippers
And I use them through the day

Get down; get low
I cannot survive with a clean window
World wash me up and waste all of my time

I don't know how; or what for
But I'd like to stop it now and maybe live some more
If I don't drop her soon
She's gonna drop me
Like a blind man walking off a cliff, willingly

Chained myself to cigarettes and boozy perfume
Trying to hide an elephant in the middle of the room
I got my pipe and slippers
And I use them through the day

I grew up alone in a crowed place
My window so clouded and common place
Couldn't see the signs
Everyone else saw
