As I went out to see my old love one more time, I thought again Of all the times we had to talk about our deeds, but we failed I've given most of my time to a job and to mundanities And now, it's late, I fear, I'm slowly decaying by degrees
ref. And according to what I see, there is no sense There is not much to say, there is no evidence That life ain't no wasteland of broken down dreams As far as the eye can see We had such high hopes and we had money to spend There was a world to gain, just there around the bend There were fields of gold, valleys of milk and honey As far as the eye can see
So day by day, our blood, our bones, our strength, our belief, our faith in God Gets slowly deconstructed, eroded, and turns into mud It's not that we decide to give up faith and courage all the way It's just that points of view get blurred a little more day by day
ref.
Think about all those who died for no reason Would you still say it's a wonderful life? If there is one thing to say about mankind There is nothing kind about man Oh Lord, protect from those who bark your name They're the most likely to kill me someday I don't believe you go to Heaven when you're good Everything goes to Hell anyway
ref.
So now I guess i'd better remain silent, I'm gone anyway But please beware of your dreams, they will make your hair turn to grey
