Monday morning, I looked the mirror in the eyes
I think I'd kill myself if I ever went blind
Your life is slipping away
You found out you're older than you thought you were todayYou've gotta stay optimistic
It gets harder by the second
We all know we're edging our way toward the endCarving hearts and crosses in my headThere's people on the streets throwin' rocks at themselves
'Cause they ain't got no money and they're livin' in hell
But there's animals down the road adding fuel to this heat
It never did take much guts to be a sheepThere are no voices as the time approaches
I wanted to be like Bob Dylan until I discovered Moses
Saturday night and I was lying in my bed
The window was open and raindrops were bouncing off my headWhen it hit me like a thunderbolt
I don't know nothing and I'm scared
That I never willYou pray to your God, that you'll never feel
So much pain again
But the agony has just begunMovin' on, opening new doors
Life just doesn't seem that simple anymore
In case I don't see you again
I hope you'll feel glad that you know me while I was here
