Slide through the back door

With your life strings attached

I can see the heavens

On my back



Can see for miles

Open your eyes

Can't see what I'm living for

My heads so high



Slip through the back door

With my head in your hands

Well I might not see the morning

But I got no plans



Can see for miles

And I can open my eyes

Well I can't see what I'm living for

Head so high



Sway slow, stay low



Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me

Take it away and let me be

Hey mama, take your cool love away from me

Take it away and let me bleed in peace



Slide through the back door

With your life strings attached

I can walk the heavens

On my back



I can see for miles and miles

Ain't that grand

Well I might not see the morning

But I got no plans



Slip through the back door

With my head in your hands

Well I've seen so many things

That my mum won't believe



This life sure is wierd

But what else have I to know

Well I've done so many things

That my folks don't want to know about



Sway slow, stay low



Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me

Take it away and let me be

Hey mama, take your cool love away from me

Take it away and let me bleed in peace



This life sure is wierd but what else have i to know
