Save Yourself

Here there is no revelry
 The sadness needs no leavening
 So loose your boots and sit yourself down
 Deep inside the water tank
 Over by the riverbank
 There I saw my little girl drown
 Call it a detour
 Ugly and impure
 Save yourself
 Where is the life line
 Here on the highline
 Save yourself
 I came back here at 24
 My friends all say what you're doing this for
 Well my father died and passed this shit to me
 Rub my hands in turpentine
 My prospect's now being undermined
 With bankers knocking daily at my door
 Call it a detour
 Ugly and impure
 Save yourself
 Where is the life line
 Here on the highline
 Save yourself
 Lost inside the peloton
 With the Jerry Lewis telethon
 Ticking soft till I fall fast asleep
 Slipped away with candlelight
 Leather chaps and cattle drives
 This is not the life I meant to lead
 Call it a detour
 Ugly and impure
 Save yourself
 But where is the life line
 Here on the highline
 Save yourself
 Save yourself
