|
I should have drown in the flood with the rest |
|
I had the chance |
|
The current was pitiless |
|
And proof of man was wiped from the face off the earth, the song, the dance |
|
I should have gone with it |
|
Alas, alas |
|
I'm stranded alone in the wake |
|
Now I have lost all sight of the grave |
|
When did I ever say that I want to be saved? |
|
I can see for miles but it doesn't look the same |
|
When no road has been paved, |
|
Go up |
|
Go up |
|
Go up |
|
Go up |
|
Now how am I gonna get down? |
|
I want a slow death wrought from the dregs |
|
"I want to be sedated' |
|
Just like joey said. |
|
I want the heaviest heart |
|
I have eaten my weight in gold |
|
I can see only what I'm shown up here |
|
But in the coals with common men who yearn for ordinary things love cannot find us |
|
So get out of my way |
|
I got out of my own way |
|
Better a tramp, than a captive |
|
Better alone than lonely with all these "friends" |
|
What in the fuck am I doing here? |
|
Why did the rapture not take me in? |
|
It is my curse to carry on. |
|
I should have died when I was young |
|
I should still be burning lung |
|
If i had known what I'd become |
|
I should have drown in the flood with the rest |
|
I had the chance, |
|
But here I am. |
