Cut me some slack
I've been gone a long time
Blinding my ears from my eyes
Dressed in distortion
And flattering lights
Up on the hill taking sides
Carved out a place
Filled it with hate
Forgive my recklessness
I've been in vice
Up on the hill taking sides
I've been made Teacher's Pet
And I've been taking the wrong bets
I could stand to fall from grace
Forgive my recklessness
I've been in vice
Up on the hill taking sides
Choked on my welcome
By swallowing pride
Up on the hill taking sides
