"Painting A Wall" lyrics

Painting a wall with a hacksaw
Getting down to where the color is at
Sucking a song through the last straw
Always the one to break the camel's back
Silver dream going grey
Going everywhere to get the going to stay
Waiting on the morning at the end of the day
It's an impossible life to get over

Bought a little time in the back of my mind
Filled it with a curious debt
Hit rewind, get back to the line
To remind what I could never forget
Turn on the water to watch it flow
Switch all the switches to see which glow
Going all around to get the growing to grow
It's an impossible life to get over

Shadow on the tip of the mountain
Shadow squeezing under the door
Same old obsession, keeping everything guessing
Means nothing plus a million times more
Bang on the string to watch it wobble
Drunkenly down the line
Feel the vibration get a little bit closer
It's an impossible life to get over

It's an impossible life to get over
It's an impossible life to get over
