It slipped my mind And for that time I felt completely free Oh what a troubled Send a double The pawn into a queen I laugh now But later's not so easy I've gotta stop The will is strong But the flesh is weak Guess that's it I've made my bed And a life with you in it I'm still hanging on Bird upon the wires I fall between the waves I avoid your gaze I turn out of phase A pawn into a queen I laugh now But later's not so easy I've gotta stop The will is strong But the flesh is weak Guess that's it I've made my bed And a life with you in it But it's eating me up But it's eating me up It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest) It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest) It's eating me up (if I get free of all the snares honest)
