Asylum Lyrics

I retire for days

Trying to meet the demands of my mind

Getting older you clutch for some closure

Like a child to a waistline

Well in prison papa said he learned his lesson

And I doubt I will ever learn mine

I go poor when I need you no more

I am done with your confines (yeah)

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word with the worst kind of appetite

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word it’s the worst it’s the worst

Well the Systrum asylum was scarily silent

For too damn long

Brushing up on the premise of luck

You’ve got none and you want more

Well the teeth that’ll bite you

Fires will fight you, you’re waging a war

Sober up, don’t get down on your luck

Don’t get desperate on a dancefloor (yeah)

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word with the worst kind of appetite

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word with the worst kind of appetite

It’s not what I want, not what I want

Man I’ve been here too long

It’s not what I want

I want to be hated from time to time

If that’s what I want then I deserve the asylum

Finally caved in, paid for the crime

If you’re stuck in a basement

Then you’re stuck in asylum

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word with the worst kind of appetite

(Oh) this is the life, right

(Yeah babe) waiting on a word it’s the worst it’s the worst
