rock bottom in roma - john thomason lyrics

i’m rock bottom in roma
thinkin’ ’bout the daughters of minerva
who draw you in with a face full of sin
god only knows where they’ve been
draggin’ you ‘cross the room
even on a quiet sunday afternoon
so you best prepare for a fight
if you’re rock bottom in roma tonight

sick and sleepy on this bus
got to stay awake because i must
if i close my eyes i’ll see the lies
that stay hidden in my dreams
driftin’ back to sleep with them in my mind
one daughter from back home
i often call her on the phone
but only when the rum is sittin’ next to me on the floor where i lie
and she just wants to talk about chamomile every day and every night
she tells me she hates me and so should i
that’s why i’m rock bottom in roma tonight

witchin’ hour at the trevi fountain
i notice a woman when i look around and
she seems a lot like the second daughter
who paints fantasies and plays the martyr
so i flip a coin into the water, hope it isn’t you
as the delirium deepens into the sinew
stretchin’ out my mind as i recall
the note she left behind on the table that says we’re through
but that was me, it’s all just a lie
she told me she hates me and so should i
that’s why i’m rock bottom in roma tonight

standin’ in line at the coliseum
all these thousands waitin’ to get in
so i turn and head back towards the old forum
to try and escape the static storm
that covers me like the gr-ss is by the dew
visions of the third daughter in a dress of blue
and the limerence leaks into my bones
and my legs tell me to run on home
but i know that i can’t say goodbye
she told me she hates me and so should i
that’s why i’m rock bottom in roma tonight

she hates me and so should i
rock bottom in roma tonight
but that was me, it’s just a lie
rock bottom in roma tonight
it’s too late to say goodbye
rock bottom in roma tonight
you’d best prepare for a fight
if you’re rock bottom in roma tonight
