Black Dog On My Shoulder

[Verse 1] There's a black dog on my shoulder again Licking my neck and saying she's my friend Solitude the one thing that I really miss Guess my life is a compromise There's a black dog on my shoulder again I'm playing with it but it's gone to my head Like Carlito's way there are no exit signs Freeze me there until I am numb My mouth is so dry My eyes are shut tight [Chorus 1] There's a black dog a coming tonight Black dog's a coming tonight [Verse 2] My dilemma but not my choice Winston Churchill can you hear my voice Melodrama there in my kitchen sink Double vision the way it is [Chorus 2] Am I coming home to you again Or am I stupid just by design Does it matter if you really ever know This black dog is out of control My mouth is so dry My eyes are shut tight [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Chorus 1]
