Oh, woe why do you stay And make me feel this awful way? You filled my heart with your solemn tune And an endless burning bluish hue It's been a basement of a year And all I want is for you to disappear But oh, woe you caught my eye And I thought that I'd give you a try But you're nothing like the way you looked In all those famous songs and books And now I see how you snuff the light And kill the ones who hold you inside And I can feel you grow in me like a forest of grief And it's so confounding trying to cut you down Trying to find a place to begin Oh, woe please hear this plea To walk away and leave me be I've weathered more than I can take Of your ever-present lonely ache It's been a basement of a year And all I want is for you to disappear It's been a basement of a year And all I want is for you to disappear All I want is for you to disappear
