It slipped my mind
And for that time
I felt completely free
Oh what a troubled
Send a double
The pawn into a queen

I laugh now
But later's not so easy
I've gotta stop
The will is strong
But the flesh is weak
Guess that's it
I've made my bed
And a life with you in it

I'm still hanging on
Bird upon the wires
I fall between the waves
I avoid your gaze
I turn out of phase
A pawn into a queen

I laugh now
But later's not so easy
I've gotta stop
The will is strong
But the flesh is weak
Guess that's it
I've made my bed
And a life with you in it

But it's eating me up
But it's eating me up
It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest)
It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest)
It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest)
