Once again my mind is in a mess
A general feeling of worthlessness
That draws me to the darker side of life
Of all my friends, everyone I've met
I feel a compulsive need to impress
So I may feel someone's on my side

Hold me, love me, stay with me until my death
To my death

Sometimes I feel I'm pushing boulders up a mountainside

Sometimes when I wake I feel like a king
But by mid-afternoon I know I'm nothing
Without that constant reassurance throughout the day
No man is an island when it comes to his needs
But he tramples on others to satisfy these
Oh god, some of the games we play

Hold me, love me, stay with me until my death
To my death

I'd love to pick a strawberry while I'm hanging from this ledge

Dreamt I surrendered to a merciless sea
Tired, so tired of it battering me
(Colin) I'm just as puzzled now as you
That may be so but you still cling to the raft
Terrified of the infinate dark
We're all just frightened people cowering form ourselves

I like to live for the moment and live for today
And savour any pleasuures that come my way
But how can I do that when my ingrowing toenail is killing me?

Today is dull, that's what we're told
We live for an expectation or a memory

Hold me, love me, stay with me until my death
To my death

We're all just frightened people cowering from ourselves
