Track 8 of _Clutching At Straws_ ---



Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter

now.

It was something about roman canddles fizzin out, shine a little light on me

now,

I found a strange fascination with a liquid fixation

alcohol can thrill me now

It's getting late in the game to show any pride or shame

I just burn a little brighter now



Doctor says my liver looks like leaving with my lover,

I need another

time out

now,

Like any sort of here turnin down to zero still standing out in any crowd

Pulling seventeen with experience and dreams, sweating out a happy hour,

Where you're hiding 29 you know it ain't a crime

to burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now



Dr. Finlay: And my advice is if you maintain this lifestyle you won't reach

30



Torch: it's a romantic way to go really, part of the heritage

it's your round in'it



We burn a little brighter now

Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a

little brighter now

It was something about roman canddles fizzin out, shine

a little light on me now, I found a strange fascination

with a liquid fization, alcohol thrill me now

It's getting late in the game to show any pride or shame

We burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now
