Achilles' Heel

from Zen Junkie II by Zen Junkie

/

lyrics

Keep me from the front lines
Though my heart it begs to go
I must abstain from living life
My Achilles' Heel says so
Sometimes I can fight the tide
Pulls me to and fro
Sometimes I can only ride
My Achilles' Heel says so

You don't have to cry for me
I can't promise that I won't
I know that I've got it good
While so many others don't
All I ask is don't forget
I'm still the one you know
And I can keep this ship on course
When my Achilles' Heel says so

Isn't really good or bad
Is just what it is
Sometimes it's like a stabbing knife
Sometimes it's like a kiss
Won't pretend to understand
These various things I feel
Won't you help me do my best
To love this life
And this Achilles' Heel

So keep me from the front lines
Though my heart it begs to go
I must confess to living life
Though my Achilles' Heel says so
Sometimes I can fight the tide
That pulls me to and fro
Sometimes I can only ride
My Achille's Heel says so
