The Light

Well, this shape I'm in
It ain't no good for me
I stay drunk all the time
And I can't get no sleep
Well I'm in my own self-inflicted misery
I got no one to blame
Nobody to blame but me

I got this devil on my shoulder
And an angel to my right
One leads to redemption
One takes me to hell tonight
People say I'm crazy
And they're probably right
Living so close to the edge
That I can't see the light
Oh, see that light

And if these pills don't work
I'll bet that the whiskey will
You know I've got these shakes
That make it hard to stand still
And I'll get in my car
And I'll go for a drive
It's funny how a hundred miles an hour's
The only thing that makes you feel alive

I got this devil on my shoulder
And an angel to my right
One leads to redemption
One takes me to hell tonight
People say I'm crazy
And they're probably right
Living so close to the edge
That I can't see the light
Oh, see that light
