Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the depths of despair
I took another drink
It soothed my mind
And helped me to think
Of all the places I've never been
[Verse 2]
Down by the river
In soulless penury
Even the sky
Wouldn't look at me
[Verse 3]
I had no point
It had no reason
[Verse 4]
Into pockets I go
Of my best friend's coat
Looking for what
I don't know
[Verse 5]
In the depths of despair
I had another line
Nothing easy
Nothing fine
Rounds of circles all out of time
[Verse 6]
Spinning plates unresolved
In my best friend's coat
Bringing bad things
I know
[Verse 7]
So, I looked to the days
When I wasn't afraid
And I dreamed I was there
Once again
