[Verse 1]
From the bar to the bed
I'm swimming in the neon
Lighted pictures of a redhead
Plastic-coated hard-on
And sometimes when that mirror shows
The smile of disbelief
Stained signatures of nightmares
Stolen by the thief, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
I'm back on the borderline
Yes, I'm back on the borderline

[Verse 2]
In the end, make a bet, and only place is Laminex
That's one, looks good
Laugh a lot, cry a lot, salt and pepper, opposites
Alright now, I'm high
And sometimes when that magic
Of the moment fails the test
In retrospect, that time of day
Did not make second best
And sometimes when a thousand voices
Tell you that you're wrong
A saint in any form
Becomes a sinner all along
[Chorus]
I'm back on the borderline
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
I'm back on the borderline
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
