Like A Wheel

You got a needle in your pocket
And there’s no halo in your heart
I got my finger in the socket
Now, this is where the meltdown starts
I wear your thorns upon my finger
I feel your nails in my back
I won’t carry all your baggage
I won’t stretch out on your rack

You got my head spinnin’
Like a wheel
Stuck in the mud
I can’t stand to see you drownin’
In all of your tears
It’s all like a flood

You got my temperature risin’
You got my heart racin’ too
And you always keep me wonderin’
What the hell you’re up to
You can’t go back to your mama
She won’t take you back no more
She can’t handle all your drama
You can’t get up off the floor

You got my head spinnin’
Like a wheel
Stuck in the mud
I can’t stand to see you drownin’
In all of your tears
It’s all like a flood

You’re gonna turn from me tomorrow
I’m gonna turn from you tonight
There’s no need for all this sorrow
There’s no future in sight
So leave my money in my wallet
Take your memory from my brain
I don’t care what you call it
I’m jumpin’ off of this train

You got my head spinnin’
Like a wheel
Stuck in the mud
I can’t stand to see you drownin’
In all of your tears
It’s all like a flood
