Brendan Perry - Sloth Lyrics

Sometimes when I'm alone
I imagine that the world is a mirror
And in my mind's eye behold
My dark inner nature

I've been wasting time
On this time honored whore
Till I get so confused
I can't see anymore

And I have crawled where
I should have seen the signs
Dragging my feet when
I could have been flying

Sometimes when I'm sad
I drink to the health of my torment
And dance at the altar
To the tune of a drunken black tango

I've been wasting time
On this time honored whore
'Til I get so confused
I can't see anymore

Wasted my youth trying
To settle old scores
Dragging my feet when
I could have been flying

Dragging my feet when
I should have been flying
Dragging my feet
Flying, flying

Fly away, fly away
Fly away, fly away
Fly away, fly away
