That treacherous voice is back again
Whispering emptiness over my shoulder
Telling me I should give in
Like an old unwanted friend
From a past that never seems
To die and is with me all the time
I know better days are ahead
Even if the light at the
End of the tunnel seems so far away
So I'll smile madly in the face
Of memory and the promise of
An early grave
Stay here now
Don't slip away
This is all just to stay
I won't leave here today
There is much to be done
So many songs left unsung
I don't know if I'll escape from
This creeping feeling that I have lost
Even from the very start
We're not born to die this way
All alone in room with a your favorite records pleading for you to hold on
""It feels better off that way""
But it's such a lie the permeates when
You can't see it through
So lets smile madly in the face
Of memory and the promise of
An early grave
This is all just to stay
I won't leave here today
There is much to be done
So many songs left unsung
