|
You see me now, a veteran of a thousand psychic wars |
|
I've been living on the edge so long |
|
Where the winds of limbo roar |
|
And I'm young enough to look at |
|
And far too old to see |
|
All the scars are on the inside |
|
I'm not sure if there's anything left of me |
|
Don't let these shakes go on |
|
It's time we had a break from it |
|
It's time we had some leave |
|
We've been living in the flames |
|
We've been eating up our brains |
|
Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on |
|
You ask me why I'm weary |
|
Why I can't speak to you |
|
You blame me for my silence |
|
Say it's time I changed and grew |
|
But the war's still going on, dear |
|
And there's no end that I know |
|
And I can't say I'm forever |
|
I can't say if we're ever gonna be free |
|
Don't let these shakes go on |
|
It's time we had a break from it |
|
It's time we had some leave |
|
We've been living in the flames |
|
We've been eating up our brains |
|
Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on |
|
You see me now a veteran |
|
Of a thousand psychic wars |
|
My energy's spent at last |
|
And my armor is destroyed |
|
I have used up all my weapons |
|
And I'm helpless and bereaved |
|
Wounds are all I'm made of |
|
Did I hear you say that this is victory? |
|
Don't let these shakes go on |
|
It's time we had a break from it |
|
Send me to the rear |
|
Where the tides of madness swell |
|
And been sliding into Hell |
|
Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on |
|
Don't let these shakes go on |
|
Don't let these shakes go on |
