| “i was born too soon” is how my grave will read | |
| lived to 35 but died at 17 | |
| it took an hour or so to reach the border as planned | |
| a few miles from here i would never know | |
| i'll confess what i've done in time | |
| lived through worse and never cared for anyone | |
| they never seemed to mind for me | |
| i left before they ever knew that i was gone | |
| it's the facts blood knows laid out in front of you | |
| tied up in foolish news waiting for a view | |
| all the time i've been waiting by them | |
| look at them they can't find me | |
| in walked the left to lose / chained down to please a few | |
| i wonder who they'll choose / i wonder who | |
| in whispered to my ear, “what will you do until then” | |
| dream all you want me dear it's a fitting an end. |
