People's eyes say I'm no damn good Shook down and left lonely Only with the maybe we could I stay inside cause I'm misunderstood I can't get no release I'm shell shocked from some heavy blows A stranger to the people I know Who used to say, 'He never had a down day' Now I'm holding on to can't let goes And silence brings no peace Because another life Went through my window pane And I don't know why I've got a will to burn In attic rooms I just shut my door For seven weeks or maybe seven more It's like I face a seven headed whore The fight's knocked out of me No measure for grief and I can't find it with the sound Break down, to the great god of the hand me down Holding the past around wound up at the lost and found Where the colors all run to grey I'm coming out of a down day Colorized, the city's plays a double feature today Life is long and something is wrong But I want to know what's going on In another life Cause it's good again And it will never die I've got a will to burn To see you again It's like another life It's like I'll not get better Will to burn Time goes by and I realize, that I'm alright You thought nothing would be the same But life comes round again Quick wits and all curious All caught up in what you say And makes me grab the time Before it slips away I can't stay and I cannot wait And I'm grateful to whistle past a grave yard gate
