Just A Phase

I´m close to mate

in this great game of chess,

It´s a relief,

it gives me peace.

I confess

New York has left a trace

of bleak winter´s brace

Life is just a phase

mmm...

God, I'm tired,

Uninspired,

defenceless.

These well known hurts,

all these words,

now mean less.

New York has left a trace

of leak winter´s brace.

Life is just a phase.

I´ve learned to be part of this game.

I´ve learned to love and use my brain.

I´ve come to know that it´s never too late.

New York winter grace

Life is just a phase.

How obligated or fated I´ve felt.

Without my king

I can´t win.

It means less...
