Well well well well well well
Said I be down in the city
Walkin' around lookin' for someone
To be my victim to lay my troubles on
Maybe a leader someone that'll teach me
The ways of the road
The way to survive this hellhole
When the grass is green
When the grass is green
I'll be swimmin' in a zone
I just dread to be alone
'Cause I'm afraid of me
Well well well
And ain't nobody here when I'm goin' through
I can't trust what I'll do to me
'Cause I have lonely dreams
When your grass is green
Down on the river contemplating maybe suicide
Or maybe I'll take somebody else's life
I didn't touch your purse for fun
I had a gun I needed the funds
So don't you condemn me
If you don't know me
'Cause I'll be feenin'
When your grass is green
When the grass is green
I'll be swimmin' in a zone
I just dread to be alone
'Cause I'm afraid of me
Well well well
And ain't nobody here when I'm goin' through
I can't trust what I'll do to me
'Cause I have lonely dreams
When your grass is green
When your grass is green
When your grass is green
Said I be down in the gutter
Lookin' for food
Lookin' for mental satisfaction
And physical reaction
'Cause ain't no fairy in these tales
About talkin' what you want and makin' ball
And hopin' your momma love you still
'Cause this grass ain't nothin' but a mirror
When the grass is green
I'll be swimmin' in a zone
I just dread to be alone
'Cause I'm afraid of me
Well well well well well well
And ain't nobody here when I'm goin' through
I can't trust what I'll do to me
'Cause I have lonely dreams
When your grass is green
When the grass is green
I'll be swimmin' in a zone
I just dread to be alone
'Cause I'm afraid of me
Well well well
And ain't nobody here when I'm goin' through
I can't trust what I'll do to me
'Cause I have lonely dreams
When your grass is green
When your grass is green
When your grass is green
When your grass is green
