X I Y

Got to wipe my feet off, now

Got to kick the shoes.

There's a lot of empties on the ground.

Got to fill some new ones.

I know some day they're gonna exercise a reasonable

amount of strain on my simple way.

A simple lack of feeling ( something.. )

A simple lack of fuel. ( empty.. )

A simple lack of energy to play, ( someway, )

create, and make it through the day.

I know some day they're gonna exercise a reasonable

amount of strain on my simple way.

I know some day they're gonna separate the part of the brain

that can discriminate the friendly from the enemy.

You are the enemy...

There's a lot of bodies on the ground.

I know. I used to be one.

I learned I'm not the kind of guy who'd cheat a friend to make it through the day.

I know some day they're gonna exercise a reasonable

amount of strain on my simple way.

You are the enemy...
