Reid Babbitt The word play is good. The mood, however, may engulf you deeper than you want to be. For me, the ambiance is serene enough to be comfortable.

lyrics

I WEAR A RING ON MY HAND SO I KNOW WHERE I LIVE
I KEEP A SIN IN MY HEART SO I KNOW TO FORGIVE
AND I RUN FROM MY LOVE SO I CAN RETURN HOME
I COMPLAIN OF MY FREEDOM WHEREVER I ROAM

MY PAST IS A MAP THAT IS BURNED AT THE EDGE
I TRAMPLED MY SONG WHILE I WAS PULLING THE SLEDGE
AND I RUINED MY EYES AT THE HELM OF A SHIP
NOW I'M WATCHING TV WHILE YOU EMPTY MY CLIP

THE BELL'S ALWAYS RINGING
EXCEPT WHEN I'M SINGING
THE DEVIL COMES ROUND WITH HIS RATTLING JAR
WHEREVER WE ARE

MY CHILDREN ARE GROWN AND MY MIND IS IN HALF
I DRINK THROUGH THE PAIN AND I SMOKE FOR A LAUGH
AND I'LL NEVER CONFESS BECAUSE MY GOD ISN'T REAL
I WORK AND I PLAY BEHIND BIG WILLIAM'S WHEEL

THE BELL'S ALWAYS RINGING
EXCEPT WHEN I'M SINGING
THE DEVIL COMES ROUND WITH HIS RATTLING JAR
WHEREVER WE ARE
