John Wesley Harding - Me Against Me Lyrics

Tonight the clocks go backwards And it’s snowing at home And we’re incommunicado ’cos they cut off the phone We’re in collaboration Againt everyone who tries to bring us down And we’re sadly incoherent All our sorrows have been drowned Got the plane out of atlanta Stripped the honour bar of booze Saw the ceiling melt like candles Dripping wax onto my shoes Needed proof I was still breathing So I held my breath for a while Fell flat on my face on purpose Just to see somebody smile And they say that it’s them and it’s us And they say that it’s you and it’s me But now I can see that it’s me against me Against me against me against me I keep your picture in a locket Heart-shape hanging around my neck You put it on me last year sometime Now the catch is just a wreck My new friends say that you look like me Of course, they’re right But you’re who I used to be Sometimes late at night All the things we’ve done, think we should own up How come we’re old but we’re not grown up? I wish I didn’t drink so much Wish I didn’t drink at all Wish I didn’t need these smokes Wish I didn’t take those pills I wish for just one time My behaviour matched up to my needs Wish you were alive now So you could help me And they say that it’s them and it’s us And they’ll tell you it’s you and it’s me But now I can see that it’s me against me Against me against me against me John Wesley Harding Lyrics Me Against Me Lyrics
