One Room Schoolhouse - Crooked Again

Tangled lines
That define
What I want to say

It's absurd
Chasing words
As they run away

And when I reach the end
I double-back again

Quiet time
With some wine
'Til we tilt and sway

Bleary days
In a haze
Who could live this way?

If there's a benefit
I can't remember it

But keeping to the line
Is harder every time

So turn me up
Twist me 'round
Take me back then
Let me down
It took one look and
I'm getting crooked again

I have lied
I have cried
I have tried to pray

But what's divine
In my mind
Has nothing to say

And every one and done (I always know)
leads to another one (Away we go)

And keeping to the line
Is harder every time

So turn me up
Twist me 'round
Take me back then
Let me down
It took one look and
I'm getting crooked again

Another token fickle friend
I haven't broken, but I'm starting to bend
Crooked again

So turn me up
Twist me 'round
Take me back then
Let me down
It took one look and
I'm getting crooked again

So turn me up
Twist me 'round
Take me back then
Let me down
It took one look and
I'm getting crooked again
