Another Boy Drowning

Monday morning ... I looked the mirror in the eyes

I think I'd kill myself if I ever went blind

Your life is slipping away

You found out you're older than you thought were ... today

You've gotta stay optimistic

It gets harder by the second

We all know we're edging our way toward the end

Carving hearts and crosses in my head

There's people on the streets

Throwing rocks at themselves

'Cause they ain't got no money and they're living in hell

But there's animals down the road adding fuel to this heat

It never did take much guts to be a sheep

There are no voices as the time approaches

I wanted to be a Bob Dylan until I discovered Moses

Saturday night and I was laying in my bed

The window was open and raindrops were bouncing off my head

When it hit me like a thurderbolt!

I don't know nothing and I'm scared that I never will

You pray to your God that you'll never feel so much pain again

But the agony has just begun

Moving on. Opening new doors

Life just doesn't seem that simple anymore

And in case I don't see you again

I hope you'll feel glad that you knew me

While I was here
