Tumble In The Rough Lyrics

I can't eat
I can't sleep
I can't live
I can't cry
I can't die
I can't walk
I can't talk
Booze
I can booze
Steal your shoes
So I can move
Tumble in the rough
Tumble in the rough
Tumble in the rough
I'm looking for a new meditation
Still looking for a new way to fly
Don't want any plastic validation
Not looking for a new way to die

I made excuses for a million lies
But all I got was humble kidney pie
So what

I'm looking for a new stimulation
Quite bored of those inflatable ties
I'm looking for a new rock sensation
Dead fish don't swim around in jealous tides

I made excuses for a million lies
But all I got was humble kidney pie
So what

In this one, he's sayin he trying to find a new outlet besides drugs because they're fuckin him up.And hes sayin his life sucks going thru withdrawl so he feels he cant do anything like eat ,sleep,ect.He's payin the price for all the lies and excuses he made.
