You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars.
I've been living on the edge so long, where the winds of limbo roar.
And I'm young enough to look at, and far too old to see.
All the scars are on the inside...
I'm not sure that there's anything left to me.
Don't let these shakes go on.
It's time we had a break from it.
It's time we had some leave!
We've been living in the flames.
We've been eating up our brains.
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on.
You ask me why I'm weary, why I can't speak to you.
You blame me for my silence, say it's time I changed and grew.
But the war's still going on, dear, and there's no end that I know.
And I can't say if we're ever...
I can't say if we're ever gonna be free.
Don't let these shakes go on.
It's time we had a break from it.
It's time we had some leave!
We've been living in the flames.
We've been eating at our brains.
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on.
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars.
My energy is spent at last, and my armour is destroyed.
I have used up all my weapons, and I'm helpless and bereaved.
Wounds are all I'm made of...
Did I hear you say that this is victory?
Don't let these shakes go on.
It's time we had a break from it!
Send me to the rear!
Where the tides of madness swell, and men sliding into hell.
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on.
Don't let these shakes go on!
Don't let these shakes go on...
