Convoluted - Down By Law

Burning up, was it good to tear it down?

Convoluted thoughts inside of me

So far, so fast, so long and so what?

I guess I should grateful to be free

Well I’m not looking forward, and I’m not looking back

I’m stuck here in the middle and I’m off the beaten track

And I don’t know where I’m going

But the road to better days seems far away

Shattered illusions cut deep when you believe

And even tough guys fall when it seems real

Sit here quite the psycho thinking of what was

This wasn’t supposed to be part of the deal

Well I’m not looking forward -- I know I can’t go back

I’m stuck here in the middle and I’m off the beaten track

And I’ve got a perfect life laid out in front of me

With memories of you

It’s not betrayal -- it’s just the truth

Wish I could learn to move on

If it hadn’t been so great I might not feel so down

Guess you were right to move on

Tried to pass it off like I feel fine

A pain that doesn’t seem to fade with time

Well I’m not looking forward, and I’m not looking back

I’m stuck here in the middle and I’m off the beaten track

And if I could buy oblivion, there’s almost not a price I wouldn’t pay
