What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I watch myself on TV
2
I'm a faker, a paper clown
3
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie
4
I just bring them down
5
I claim proneness to exaggeration
6
But the truth lies in my frustration
7
The children of the night all pass me by
8
Have to dress myself up in brandy, in sleep I hide
9
But I don't care how much I booze
10
There ain't no way out
11
There ain't no way out
12
Don't care what you say boy
13
There ain't no way out
14
I lose so many nights of sleep
15
Worrying about my responsibility
16
All the problems that screw me up
17
Down to him or me?
18
My ego will just confuse me
19
One day it's going to up and use me
20
Dish me out another tailor-made compliment
21
Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent, however much I squirm
22
There ain't no way out
23
There ain't no way out
24
I don't care what you say boy
25
There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out
26
And the night comes down like a cell door closing
27
Suddenly, I realize that I'm writing now more honestly
28
While all alone with a bottle and my head up floating
29
Far away from the phone and the conscience
30
Going on at me and on at me
31
And I don't care what you say
32
There ain't no way out, no way out
33
There ain't no way out, just try
34
There ain't no way out
35
There ain't no way out
36
There ain't no way out
37
...
38
I walk into a club
39
And know one seems to know me
40
I have to tell the story of my life
41
To keep from being thrown out there and then
42
It all seems so futile
43
Can I live if some shy stud once disowned me?
44
Can't face the fact that once you open up for real
45
You become ambivalent
46
But once they let you in
47
There ain't no way out
48
There ain't no way out
49
I don't care what you say boy, there ain't no way out
50
Take it from me
51
Now the walls are all clawed and scratched
52
Like by some soul, insane
53
In the morning, I hung-overly detach myself
54
I'll take no blame
55
I just can't face my failure
56
I'm nothing but a well fucked sailor
57
You at home can easily decide what's right
58
By glancing over so briefly at what I write
59
But it don't help me that you know
60
There ain't no way out, no way out
61
There ain't no way out
62
I don't care what you say, there ain't no way out
63
There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out
64
There ain't no way out, there ain't no way out
