lyrics

I float a raft down Tricky River and hang on for life
Carried by current away from the fight
I feel like a bowling pin at Gutter’s End
Humiliation’s little friend
Humiliation’s little friend
Where love just pretends

I’ll be there at the corner where no one knows my name
Folded up in my coat is my pride and my shame
I’ve been standing in line to see destiny bend
Humiliation’s little friend
Humiliation’s little friend
Where love just pretends

I’ve been ringing the mop just to manage my spills
Everyone’s down on their knees
Just give me a minute to gather my pills
And you’ll be sweeping me off of my feet

Carry me up just to throw me again
Cover me up just to shield me from wind
Then kick off the blanket and see how it ends
Humiliation’s little friend
Humiliation’s little friend
Where love just pretends
