Amos Lee - Violin lyrics

Lately I, I've been heading for a breakdown Every time I leave my house Well, it feels just like a shake down Between the street sweepers and the pushers, are the lawyers Who may as well be butchers Between the small timing hustlers who all seem to feed upon each other [Chorus] Oh God why you been Hanging out in that old violin While I've been waiting for you, to pull me through Lately I, every time I try to lie down Oh, my mind just gets away I can't even close my eyes now Between the big fish and ambition, and the lovers Using words as ammunition Between the warped planks I've been pacing endless Impossible dream that I've been chasing [Chorus]
