Bu-But before that happens, I've got a few things I wanna say to this body
Well. You shouldn't be back yet from your place, I told you- I told you that
I tried it, it just didn't seem to suit me
My biggest dream is gettin' hit with a car
You think a plane, a train, something that's fast and hard
But my problem is what would be the next set of cards
All I have is my brain, that'd be left over shards and I
Always remember that it won't fade to black
Like we're in a soap and we'll all be, right back
No, I know that if I got laid flat
That's that, all done, better call it a wrap
Everybody's got their pitfalls, their big walls
Their foul calls, their snail crawls; the giant size of the world will make you feel small
Step back, and you gotta know, and that's all, that's all, that's a
Baby, I should try
Oh, but would that mean, I'll die?
Take a minute, listen hear it Imma show you how to keep your spirit
Take these lyrics, they don't fear shit, they gon' keep you goin' till you clear it
Keep you goin' till you clear it
A hundred years ago, or a year ago, or six months ago, or whenever it was when you were here to see it
Amanda, think of when you were here
Please don't ever, not ever, no never gonna smear it
Had a second and reckoned I'd finally made a hit
I found a new way to keep it all in check
Keep myself from snapping my own neck
If I could
I can't
If I could
If I could
I can't
Think
I'll die
I let you, become my greatest fear
I let, you go
All for the man that won't hear it my way
Amanda, think of when you were here
It's new, and clean, I'm a lady in waiting
What else?
This part is a dream I think, there's a tower and a--grave
Where?
I don't know
It's an open grave and I stand by the gravestone looking down into it
It's my grave
Well I guess the gentlemen are in a pretty tall hurry to get me out of here
And the way the evidence has piled up against me
I can't say I blame them much, and I'm quite willing to go sir when they voted that way
But before that happens, I've got a few things I wanna say to this body
