Gaslamp

Gaslamp, Gaslamp show me the way 
inside the cave, leave me there 
where I'm safe.
Ain't no debate, Gaslamp, Gaslamp.
In the way, seeing no place that 
I fit in.

Blistered with Sin. 
yeah...
I'm creeping again, 
yeah..
I'm creeping again,
yeah.
I'm creeping again.

Gaslamp, Gaslamp in me warming 
my Chi, sleeping up in the Rum and
left over Whiskey.
Stagnated. I've never been the one 
to knock for help, yet here I am.

Here in my mental man, 
never rising back.
Scared and afraid of just leaving 
a stain, an impact on this Earth.
I need to be calm, nothing more
than the son of beauty upon the 
concrete.
Am I making believe,
or does anybody care enough to 
caress on my cheek?

Resting me, arresting me,
and then admitting defeat.

Am I making believe,
or does anybody care enough to 
caress on my cheek?

Resting me, arresting me,
and then admitting defeat.
