  • All she sees apart from me, possessed behind the eyes
    Apart from the frighting, the moaning and biting, seems to be a nice guy
    And I know what she thinks when she looks at me, when she looks with such despair
    You're not the only one around here who needs a bit of fresh air

    'Cause I'm a sad sack, post teen, could have been a love machine
    No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    And I'm a coal train, fast lane, caught up in a dirty rain
    No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    Well this old place here, man it's falling apart
    She's on the road as she goes, but she won't get far
    I'm on a show to parole to the toad in a hole
    I've gotta grow some roots, gotta prop up the bar

    I've got bloodshot eyes and there's blood in my teeth
    I've got a ripped up jacket and a friend who's a thief
    Well I'm frothing at the mouth, trying to pull it out
    But the fire inside keeps burning, burning out

    'Cause I'm a sad sack, post teen, could have been a love machine
    No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    And I'm a coal train, fast lane, caught up in a dirty rain
    No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    Hold your own in the situation
    Don't be afraid to be a friend
    'Cause I won't hurt you girl, or leave you a loose end
    You make me alive enough to love again

    'Cause I'm a sad sack, post teen, could have been a love machine
    No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    And I'm a coal train, fast lane, caught up in a dirty rain
    No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    'Cause I'm a sad sack, post teen, could have been a love machine
    No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie
    Like a zombie

    And I'm a coal train, fast lane, caught up in a dirty rain
    No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie
