Monkey on my Back

from blink, debris! by Blue Genes

lyrics

I got a monkey on my back and it's just about to break my neck
What I once thought was a key, has now turned against me
Honestly all I want is to be free, but I guess I found out that's only so easily done in your dreams

All I need is something real
I just want to feel
All I want is something real
O mama can you make me feel?
Guess I'll take your deal, man
If it'll make me feel a little better

I wade many times a day in the Styx, tryin' to get my fix
I can see the mist peeling off, as the ribbons float towards the sky
Well it's just a little life lost, it's just a little white lie

All I want is something real
I just wanna feel
All I need is something real
O mama can you make me feel?
Guess I'll take your deal, man
If it'll make me feel a little better

Let's wet our smolderin' worry and listenin' to someone else's story
We'll let our panic pass us by tonight only to flood us out with the mornin' light
It seems like I'm gunna hafta fight like hell to stay clean in this dirty world

All I need is something real
I just wanna feel
All I want is something real
O mama can you make me feel?
Guess I'll take your deal, man
If it'll make me feel a little better...
