She can't hold it where she lay
She don't need it where she
Plenty of that where it could pay
I sit there by the counter
Where i sell that things that kill
Propped up by dollar bills
I'm tired of walking this wire
It keeps me awake for heaven sake
My friends don't seem to know me
Counting every single breath
A shawl to wear around my neck
When I'm being pulled apart
Why am I always kept away
From what I hold inside my heart
I'm tired of walking this wire
It keeps me awake for heaven sake
My friends don't seem to know me
I thought they did but they don't
