Violin lyrics

Lately I, I've been heading for a breakdown

Every time I leave my house

Well, it feels just like a shakedown

Between the street sweepers

And the pushers and the lawyers

Who may as well be butchers

Between the small timin' hustlers who all

Seem to feed upon each other

Oh God, why you been

Hanging out in that old violin

While I've been waiting for you

To pull me through

Lately I, every time I try to lie down

While my mind just gets away

I can't even close my eyes now

Between the big fish ambition

And the lovers

Using words as ammunition

Between these wood planks I've been pacing

And this impossible dream that I've been chasing

Oh God, why you been

Hanging out in that old violin

While I've been waiting for you

To pull me through

Oh God

Oh God

Oh God, why you been

Hanging out in that old violin

While I've been waiting for you

To pull me through
