TREE OF WOE

 

hanging

in the tree of woe

and not much

is looking very good

from this angle

 

the world

is spinning

out of control

and I’m getting lost

in all this haze

 

well, a few things

ain’t so pleasant

from this point of view

 

the dark side

isn’t the far side

but it could be better

than it is now

 

I take the punches

and roll on the kicks

as I remain helpless

to the onslaught

 

attacked from all sides

things really

don’t look so good

from here

 

they say

it’s all perspective

but I’m certainly

not buying into

any of that shit
