JUKE

"Juke" is a composite of a couple of young guys I used to know.

Been lost so long it feels like home
Been high so long it feels like down
But that's alright
Yea, it's okay
Down here 
We all live this way

I steal and I rob for the things I've got
Until they're stolen from me
Mostly I rob to pay for dope
A piece of oblivion in place of hope
But that's alright
Man, it's okay
We live and die this way

I'm losing my teeth
And my lips are cracked
My face looks as though
It's made of wax
I'm thin enough to walk through walls
And I can't ever remember walking tall
Still, it's alright
yea, it's okay
It'll always be this way
