Lyrics

God bless the children
Who are always in the way.
God bless the old
Who are waiting for their last day.
Me? I'm in disguise,
Jumpin' out from a hedge.
Grass stains on the back of my head
And always half on the edge.
You know I love you,
but it's not the same…..
Bound by a restless inner lock.
Flown up, I'm barely to the top
To see a shimmer of sense,
But the weight keeps holding me down.
Folding my eyesight in half.
Deaf enough not to hear a laugh.
It seems I'm perched on a fence
Peering at the lost and found.
You know I love you,
But it's not the same.
Sketching out some major thoughts
On a leaf that's of the fall,
I'm insane.
Got home way too late,
And hearing your voice, I couldn't wait.
But the answering machine was empty…
I cried and I cried and I cried.
I feel I've been hollowed and shelled
One last time,
And the hope of disappearing
Is a glimmer in a half dead eye.
You know I love you,
But it's not the same.
Every time I look to see,
I love you.
But it's not the same.
Falling down with my mope-mind ready,
The couch seems to be a likely place to stay.
... I'm sad, but not blue.
