A SONG FOR ICHARUS June 2017
SLIDING SCALE – New Video
LYRICS:
SLIDING SCALE
This is a sick song
This is a sad song
This is a bad song
Where everything’s wrong
I’m coming apart now
Soul-sick in my heart now
I can’t even start now
So run right along
I’m lying in bed bow
So leave me for dead now
Get out of my head now
I’m not very strong
On my sliding scale of sadness
On my third derail today
You pay for how you play and what you cannot say and what you throw away
Which came first the sick or sad which way… Sliding scale… Sliding scale
This is a sick song
This is a sad song
This is a bad song
Where everything’s wrong
I’m not a machine here
Quit acting so mean dear
I’ll fix it up next year
If that’s not too long
The world’s a bit gray now
it’s just not my day now
Can’t go out and play now
I do not belong
On my sliding scale of sadness
On my third derail today
You pay for how you play and what you cannot say and what you throw away
Which came first the sick or sad which way……………….. Sliding scale…. Sliding Scale…… Sliding scale….Sliding scale
This is a sick song, This is a sad song This is a bad song , Where everything’s wrong
This is a sick song, This is a sad song This is a bad song , Where everything’s wrong
