[Verse 1] Lo, shes seas apart from me Possessed behind the eyes Well, apart from the frightening, the moaning, the biting He seemed to be a nice guy And I know what she thinks when she looks at me When she looks with such despair Well, youre not the only one around here That needs a bit of fresh air [Chorus] Cause Im a sad sack postteen Caught up in the love machine No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie Like a zombie And Im a coal train, fast lane Caught up in the dirty rain No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie Like a zombie [Verse 2] Well, this old place here, man, its falling apart Shes on the road, there she goes, but she wont get far Im on a show to parole to the toad in the hole I gotta grow some roots, gotta prop up the bar I got bloodshot eyes and theres blood in my teeth I got a rippedup jacket and a friend whos a thief Well, Ima coughing out my mouth, trying to pull it out But the fire inside keeps burning, burning out [Chorus] Cause Im a sad sack postteen Caught up in the love machine No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie Like a zombie And Im a coal train, fast lane Caught up in the dirty rain No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie Like a zombie [Bridge] Hold your own in the situation Dont be afraid to be a friend Cause I wont hurt you, girl, or leave you a loose end You make me alive enough to love again [Chorus] Cause Im a sad sack postteen Caught up in the love machine No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie Like a zombie And Im a coal train, fast lane Caught up in the dirty rain No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie Like a zombie Cause Im a sad sack postteen Caught up in the love machine No dream, come clean, walking like a zombie Like a zombie And Im a coal train, fast lane Caught up in the dirty rain No pain, no gain, walking like a zombie Like a zombie [Outro] But shes a howler Or even got signed before my father Losing her love without a light on Losing it all another way
