So here′s my situation for all the world to see
Gone is my innocence, all that's left is me
Rising up just to tear me down
I can be your perfect stranger but just not now
Insomnia drains my life
Gone is the stranger from a forgotten time
Fly me out of the window sill
No, it ain′t about my life and it ain't about my will
Warring superstitions, joy and inhibitions
I've been around a long time, I can′t lie to myself
Dirt in my pocket, dirt on my shoes
Makes a grown man wicked, it′s an easy man's blues
Dirt on my conscience, dirt over you
Leaves a good man walking, it′s a blind man's blues
Lost in a daze as I find myself
Looking for new ways to find a way out
′Cause and effect makes me drown a desire
Tempted by my fate of a virgin fire
Warring superstitions, joy and inhibitions
I've been around a long time, I can′t lie to myself
Dirt in my pocket, dirt on my shoes
Makes a grown man wicked, it's an easy man's blues
Dirt on my conscience, dirt over you
Leaves a good man walking, it′s a blind man′s blues
Dirt on my conscience, dirt over you
Makes a good man walking, it's an easy man′s blues, yeah
Hey, dirt in my pocket now
