Draw The Line



Draw The Line

Inside the artiste’s head the swirl survives
Outside one more show day arrives
Sudden realization upon awakening
Its morn’ inside but outside the evening

Always the same terror ride of doubt
Wrong chord, slipped strum or shredded wheat
So now it’s surreal as that sickening feeling comes
Is this me as I move and hear morning sounds?

Damn that telephone because I know its time
Three others waiting that play along, rock and rhyme
Pressure from hell, it’s weak to be one
Reach for the gin or there’ll be no going on

This is how it begins and we know how it ends
Either it’ll be grip on control or destroyed by one’s own hands
The list is long from the greatest to the minor
Self-doubt, the essence of evil regardless of honor
