I am alone tonight except for my good friend   Sitting in my hand and weeping   I'm not alone tonight, I'll turn the TV on   The vision I see is all blurred but I can hear the TV weeping      Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down   Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down      Friends and a family keep getting in touch   Sitting in this chair and rotting   How much longer must I alienate myself   Before they stop even trying to help me over, help me over?      Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down   Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down      Oh I'm in paradise, wedged between a bottle and no one   Oh I'm in paradise, wedged between a bottle and no one   Oh I'm in paradise, wedged between a bottle and no one   Oh I'm in paradise, wedged between a bottle and no one      Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down   Oh, my belated decline   Crashing down, crashing down
