electric fence

It's like grabbing an electric fence
And hanging on
I turn and walk away
Because the current is so strong

They say still waters run deep
There's an undertow up a few more feet

It's hells bells
Dragging me under
A technicolor yawn
Making my social life plunder
Age regression is such a mess
Suddenly I'm four and I feel undressed

Emotionally naked
Is worse than the physical
Look at my body
I won't get hysterical

Examine my soul with a magnifying glass
And then I'm afraid I'll have to kick your ass

I can retreat and go under
Or get mad and deny
If I'm mad enough, buddy
I can hold my own in disguise

Strength from above
Kicks in when mine fades away
A defense mechanism
Not a genuine display

I defend myself
I defend my nest
I'm a crazy man
I can pass the test

If the test says I'm street smart
And can handle survival
The kid's got a will to live
We still await the man's arrival

It's electric current
Running through my heart and soul
It will burn me with acid
If I don't break my hold
I'm sorry I have to walk
That I can't be more real
But I'm totally ruled
By the way that I feel

I can't decide to rise above
Because the current
Rushes toward a flood

A flood of defensiveness
Yes, I can hold my ground
I'm a survivor
But a lonely man about this town

It's like grabbing an electric fence
And hanging on
I turn and walk away
Because the current is so strong
