Dying Slowly

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've got memories

I keep them away from me

They won't behave

Won't be what I want them to be

I've seen it all and it's all done

I've been with everyone and no one

So many squandered moments

So much wasted time

So busy chasing dreams

I left myself behind

I've seen it all and it's all done

I've been with everyone and no one

So this dying slowly

It seemed better than shooting myself

This dying slowly

It seemed better than shooting myself

These worms, darling

They're nibbling away at me

They go at it when I'm sleeping

Won't let me get to my feet

I've seen it all and it's all done

I've been with everyone and no one

So this dying slowly

It seemed better than shooting myself

This dying slowly

It seemed better than shooting -

If I could find the words to explain this feeling

I would shout them out

If I could find out all this, what's inside me

I would shout it out

So this dying slowly

It seemed better than shooting myself

This dying slowly

It seemed better than shouting it out

I make some coffee

Pull on that new pair of pants

I can get so far [?]

The feeling just falls away

I've seen it all and it's all done

I've been with everyone and no one

I'm just tired, baby

I just need to lay down

I'm just tired, darling

I just need to lay down

I'm just tired, baby

I just need to lay down

I'm just tired, darling

I just need to lay down

I'm just tired, darling
