Prism from Chrysalis by Samuel Kinsella

it’s always the same
“just one more, i’m in control”
maybe that’s why i’m so far away
maybe i’m just numb

it’s always the tidal wave
we’ve desensitized it all
have i seen all there is to have
feel like i’m gettin old

maybe i’m just old

i don’t want to fail you
(detach your mind)
i don’t want another way

it’s always the same
yeah here comes the pain again
every face i see turns stone
even faces of friends

where have i been?

i don’t want to fail you
(detach your mind)
i don’t want another way

it’s too late to save
and you’re still losin your hold
as you pour another drink
tell the lie you told

nothin gained right
(brand new view)
is this the same night
a fix from you
will help me through

i don’t want to fail you
(detach your mind)
i don’t want another way
