here's no prayer I could say
no advice I could take, no pill
that would make me feel better
There's no fountain to seek
no cup I could drink. I know of nothing
that ever grew younger. But the universe
it must go on forever, just like two mirrors
that are facing each other
It's reality upon illusion over and over
until you can't tell the difference
they both just blend together
And I just put each day in a box on a calendar
winter to summer
And I'll go walking in that same circle
for as long as I can remember
I just keep hoping that someone
would make me a better offer
Cause I know the end that we see
from our balcony is barely the beginning
So I'm up on the fence and I'm still not convinced
Can't decide which side looks greener
So I just stay where I am, remain indifferent
What happens, what's happened it's easier
I'll go ahead and drown myself in the fluids of another
Yeah my woman to me was as pure and essential as water
And so she looked like me for awhile
but she does no longer
cause she took the shape of whatever it was that held her
She killed the fear in my heart
but our love also got murdered
She said my child you can no longer sing of that fever
cause it's selfish and you are not selfish
You must get stronger
So I know when your lover leaves
I guess all you can be is forgiving
