live a life in pain
wanted to remain
no one ever quite knows
what they said and didn't say
friends are dead and gone
sing the dying song
no one wants to hear it
it goes on & on & on
live a life in wounds
piper change the tune
fear of self
hatred of self
what end is coming soon
sing a song of ear
dead these seven years
the clerk is dressed in black
and fade to black
i live in fear
a needle in the eye of a needle
lying dead in the dock of the bay
crawling up on out of this haystack
but you know it isn't going away
