Uncle Joe (1990 demo) Lyrics

Where have all the people gone in my life
I'm looking at the ceiling with
An awful feeling of loss and of loneliness
The after late night television painI'm running out of strength
I'm running, running, running out of strength
And it feels so wonderful to swim in our fears
And divide inseparable, the awakening of lifeOh, Uncle Joe
Could you tell me about what you know?
Of being having mental problems
And their solutions tooI'll give anything a try once
I'll try anything three times
I don't care, I don't care
I don't care, I don't careBut there's no company
That can stand to be with me
So my dependency on you grows
And I am not very well readAnd consider I will lose my heart
And can you spare me of my pain?
Can't you spare me of my tears?Oh, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

Uncle Joe, Uncle JoeAnd suicide's intentional when I spin in your fear
I am over-influenced by movies
And you should've gone to the fear
To my hope, the darkest hopeDid you know? Lies become the sky
That's all gone to the fear
To my hope, the darkest hope
Do you know? Lies become the sky
