Well I picked a fruit from the forbidden tree and took a forbidden bite
And suddenly my eyes were open wide and I knew wrong from right
And when I tried to share the things that I had found
I was shunned and ostracized by everyone around
So I picked up my guitar played every chord I knew and nothing worked
So I picked up a pen and tried to put all of my thoughts into words
And when I looked down at the pages they were blank
I guess my mind is empty as the bottles that I drank
So I picked up a tube and took it with me outside to my car
And fell asleep on the front seat to the pounding of my heart
And when I woke up in a hospital bed
I knew that there's no god out there who cares if I end up dead
So I put up my thumb and waited on the side of the road
For anyone to take me deep into the realms of the unknown
And where I end up I don't even really care
I just got to get away there's nothing left for me here
