Is this just sickness this thickness i feel?
Or is the start of the end slowly being revealed?
Can these be our worst days of all time?

Is it my fault i'm still stuck in the salt mines?
Things come back but back for how long?
Because the things that we had in youth and life are now gone

The one thing i'm fearing is shooting this yearling
Watching all things good and true disappearing


It's half now half then all "how does this end?"
It's all question marks incandescent hearts
It's the how and the when and the power to bend

How time's changed us into strangers
Half now half then all "how does this end?"
How time's left us young and restless

It's the how and the when and the power to bend
It's the getting and losing wasting and using


Is this just weakness this bleakness i'm caught in?
Is life really rotten and to be forgotten?
Things come back but back for how long?

Because the things that we had in life and death are now gone
If you're dying i'm dying to know
So i can change all of my words to songs before you go

The difference between letters and songs is only
Where they get sent and who they're stringing along


Is this endless this pendulum sway?
Is it the start of the end or just the end of the day?
If you think i'm reading your mind

Well then it could be a case of the blind leading the blind
I love you but i'm dragging you down
I don't want to leave you lost ragged and drowned

The one thing i'm fearing is shooting this yearling
Watching all things good and true disappearing
