One Rung Lyrics - Singles - Slobberbone

Now, it's three a.m. 

And the walls are closin' in 

I can hear them whisper, "That fool 

He's done it again" 

The air has turned cold 

But I can't reach my window 

So I lay here twisted and I 

Pray for the dreams to flow 

Another day done 

Plenty of work, no fun 

And in a bottle or a T.V. dinner 

Solace comes 

One bad day leads to more 

Like the one drink that you pour 

And becomes a lifetime of hopes 

And dreams ignored 

I never made any specific plans 

I'd always said you knew 

I was just a simple man 

And I never made any deals with you 

I didn't know I needed to 

You spend your whole life 

Waitin' for somethin' to change 

Somethin' or someone 

To come around and rearrange 

You spend your whole damn life 

Tryin' to climb just one rung 

With nothin' to do 

If it doesn't come 

Now, it's three a.m. 

And the walls are closin' in 

I can hear them whisper, "That fool 

He's done it again" 

The air has turned cold 

But I can't reach my window 

So I lay here twisted and I 

Pray for the dreams to flow 

I lay here twisted and I 

Pray for the dreams to flow
