Wonder why he quit drinking.
This is why he quit drinking.
The news reports were about his deeds.
Games- he invented the games.
Pain- He loves the pain.
Taught early on,
lived it for a lifetime,
even learned to enjoy it.
Adolescent ignorance-
He has not experienced that for a long time.
Twenty-nine minus five.
She fit through the window just fine.
Daddy’s son all grown up.
No need to play no more.
The playground is full of weeds.
Can't you see that there's light in the dark.
Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.
(Wolfmother)
