Slip Away

It's bright in my room so bright I cannot see
Counting the seconds they seem to blind me
Looking at pictures of young pretty boy grins
Checking the mirror 'cause I don't feel much like him
There was so much time and love and sacrifice came my way
Fighting with thoughts for it's my turn to pay
Feeling obsessive no sense of purpose
When life is just another crap love song away

'Cause I don't want to slip away
Chasing time
That should remain
Words in my brain
Taunting me go away

Feeling so good when all of their work stops
'Cause just a bad conscience cause they feed me up and I slag them off
They're staring at me in the park with their bottle of joy
Over the edge watch out another step it could be me
He's funny and laughs and gives a big clown beam
But the smile is cracking it's wearing away at the seams

'Cause I don't want to slip away
Chasing time
That should remain
Words in my brain
Taunting me go away
