LYRICS

Four and twenty years ago, I come into this life
The son of a woman and a man who lived in strife

He was tired of being poor 
And he wasn't into selling door to door
And he worked like the devil to be more

A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul
Night after sleepless night, I walk the floor and I want to know

Why am I so alone
Where is my woman, can I bring her home 
Have I driven her away, is she gone

Morning comes to sunrise and I'm driven to my bed
I see that it is empty and there's devils in my head

I embrace the many colored beast. 
I grow weary of the torment, can there be no peace
And I find myself just wishing that my life would simply cease.
