A World of My Own Lyrics

Every morning a surprise for me

Granting me a personality

And somehow I wind up to be another maniac

Pills for breakfast when the day is grey

To keep my thoughts from going astray

It's getting hard to keep the train of thought right on track

My world is an ashtray

The rain turned the ashes into mud

Some burn out but

I'm fading away

Two figures and a single silhouette

Just one voice in a heated duet

There's always a drama 'bout to take place in my head

Lock me up and throw away the key

Let no windows look back down on me

In a small rubber room far from the living and the dead

My world is an ashtray

The rain turned the ashes into mud

Some burn out but

I'm fading away

Now I'm living in a world of my own

Life has stripped me down to the bone

I'm standing alone in the rain and sleet

Lines have been written, the story's been told

Plain to see why I'll never grow old

The sun is on the other side of the street

My world is an ashtray

The rain turned the ashes into mud

Some burn out but

I'm fading away

My world is an ashtray

The rain turned the ashes into mud

Some burn out but

I'm fading away

My world is an ashtray

The rain turned the ashes into mud

Some burn out but

I'm fading away
