- And I found my head uncrowned and all
life's sweet nectar flowing down
- the cracks and seams wasted on some petty
little prayers
- And I reached up for despair but I was
well below that cherished stage
- and all my mangled hopes all songs unsung
- .
- I fear I've wasted all my sun
- I fear I've wasted all my time
- Everything is faded
- Smiles are fabricated now
- I fear I've wasted all my sun
- I fear I've wasted all my time
- Held my eyes closed for too long
- .
- And I ran out through the streets in
hopes that I might find it there
- but all my buildings started back at
me tenantless and bare
- And I reached up for the sky, but it
always seemed so far away
- transcendent thoughts you gave lie atrophied
and broken
- .
- I fear I've wasted all my sun
- I fear I've wasted all my time
- Everything is faded
- Smiles are fabricated now
- I fear I've wasted all my sun
- I fear I've wasted all my time
- Held my eyes closed for too long
- .
- And I sat when I should have stood; swallowed
when I should have spit
- until now I only recognize me in pictures
taken long ago
- and all the changes simply haunt and
never go away
- a friend will tell when I hit hell, I
may not feel the change
- .
- Held my eyes closed for too long
- Held my eyes closed for too long
- .
- Just before I go don't you offer any
sweet advice because
- where were all your shoulders when I
needed them so long ago
- and now with legs weak and weary from
this silly dance
- with a suitcase full of memories, I pack
my bags an slowly drift away
