Well, I was sitting in an alley somewhere south of Pulaski
Steaming in the hot Chicago sun
Felt the night before pushing out of every pore
Spinning out and throwing up a lung
And it didn't seem to matter, I was chasing down transcendence
Or getting at a little bit of fun
Cause every fleeting high, every toxin that I tried
Never got me that much past where I'd begun
And all my other friends who were rich enough for rehab
Had doctors write them notes for all their pills
It's a real fine line between enough and enough to get you killed
I got a friend who grew up in Sacramento
Fell in love with a girl from Calumet
Got a deal on some land in Indiana
They got married, and away they went
Then one day she runs away with this guy who works in real estate
Where they wind up is anybody's guess
Now he's down and unemployed somewhere in southern Illinois
Tryna save some cash to get himself back West
And whether you think love is just some other drug
Or some holy, selfless act of the will
It's a real fine line between enough and enough to get you killed
Well it's ashes to ashes and somewhere in between
We chase the little things that help us live our lives
Call it a vice, call it a crutch, call it a guilty pleasure
Man, none of this should come as a surprise
When there's so much disaster chasing after peace or power
Or plunder, or some other precious prize
What's left to say, at the end of the day
It's a miracle that anyone survives
And I don't claim to be perfect, man, far from it
But at this point, I think I know the drill
It's a real fine line between enough and enough to get you killed
