With Hell So Near Lyrics

got nothin to say upon myself
im just a pooor b****** like everyone else

sittin in the garage with gasoline
huffin fumes with my friends from off the street
well this here cliff looks mighty steep
and i could find a home among the ragged rocks beneath

and its a long way down
{its a long way}
i got the time

with hell so near
{with hell so near}
im desperate tonight

fightin with some guy whos twice my size
hes got the look of murder in his beady empty eyes

luckily for me i brought my knife
i stab him once then he smashes in my face
well no one tries to stop my fall
i look to them as they stand there and applaud

and its a long way down
{its a long way}
i got the time

with hell so near
{with hell so near}
im desperate tonight

everythings divided black or white
theres good and evil
theres wrong and theres right
i guess i know what side im on
when i try to do right
others tell me i done wrong

well this here river looks wide and deep
and i could find a home among the bones and weeds beneath

and its a long way down
{its a long way}
i got the time

with hell so near
{with hell so near}
im desperate tonight

im desperate tonight
