Verse 1
I write this alone on my bed; I've poisoned every room in the house.
The place is quiet and so a-lone,
Pretend there's something worth waiting for.
There's nothing nice in my head; the adult world took it all a-way.
I wake up with same spit in my mouth; I cannot tell if it's real, or not.
Chorus 1
I try and walk in a straight line.
An imi-tation of digni-ty.
From despair to where?
From despair to where?
Interlude
Verse 2
Out-side open mouthed crowds, pass each other, as if they're drugged.
Down pale corridors of rou-tine, where life falls una-toned.
The weak kick like straw, 'till the world means less and less.
Words are never e-nough; just cheap tarnished glit-ter.
Chorus 2
I try and walk in a straight line.
An imi-tation of digni-ty.
From despair to where?
From despair to...
Bridge 1

Chorus 3
A cripple walks in a straight line.
An imi-tation of digni-ty.
From despair to where?
From despair to where?
