Flame of the Uninspired - K.D. Lang

I spent a lifetime carving out my fate

Things I like, things I hate

My very nature is to criticize

And to cut myself down to size.

On the cusp of compromise

To living hell, I slipped and fell.

I’m in the corner licking off my wound

Loves come and go, all too soon

Looking back upon my life as such

And the remedies, they cost too much

Such a frail and fragile place

This egg and shell upon my face.

Fueled by desire

Wind adds to fire

Flame of the uninspired.

On the cusp of compromise

To living hell, I slipped and fell

Such a frail and fragile place

This egg and shell upon my face.

Fueled by desire

Wind adds to fire

Flame of the uninspired…
