Never thought I'd be betrayed
By someone who used to be a friend,
I took a nap and had
A sisyphean nightmare
Where I saw myself as a slave
Pulling a boulder upon a hill,
Slide and tumble,
Slide and stumble,
Rise and tumble,
Tumble and stumble.
I pretend to understand
What it means to be a man,
Hiding and scared, hiding and scared,
Can't you see I'm here talking?
Your name might be God
But it does not mean that much to me,
Slide and tumble,
Slide and stumble,
Mumble and stumble,
Rise and tumble.
I stared at your green fingers,
You told me it would be fine
To give up the hunt to settle
A new life on a hill, on a hill,
Survive, sleep, drink, die,
Perfect addictions of a narcotized life,
Slide and tumble,
Slide and stumble,
Rise and mumble,
Slide and crumble.
Yellow girls are running backwards
Towards a fountain in all its glory,
Transcending time and space
To somewhere mundane,
Two man in a park watching ducks
And feeding passersby,
Slide and tumble,
Mumble and stumble,
Rise and tumble,
Mumble and crumble.
It's so fun to live underground
Away from the noisy crowd,
No one speaks, no one talks
Within a place of healing
Where they respect you for what you are
And they always leave flowers in the ceiling,
Slide and tumble,
Slide and stumble,
Crumple and mumble,
Tumble and stumble.
