Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Blinkered, paralysed
Flat on my back
[Verse 2]
They say our world is built on endeavor
That every man is for himself
Wealth is for the one that wants it
Paradise, if you can earn it
[Verse 3]
History is the reason
I'm washed up
[Verse 4]
Blinkered, paralysed
Flat on my back
[Verse 5]
My ambitions come to nothing
What I wanted now seems just a waste of time
I can't make out what has gone wrong
I was good at what I did
[Verse 6]
The crow's come home to roost
And I'm the dupe
Written by: Andrew Gill, David Geoffrey Allen, Hugo Hamilton Mark Burnham, Jonathan Michael King
