Lyrics The The – Another Boy Drowning

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’ve gotta stay optimistic
It gets harder by the second
We all know we’re edging our way toward — the end.
— carving hearts and crosses in my head —

There’s people on the streets
throwin’ rocks at themselves
Coz 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 sheep.

There are no voices — as the time approaches,
I wanted to be like Bob Dylan
Until I discovered Moses
Saturday night I was lying in my bed
The window was open and raindrops
Were bouncing off my head
When it HIT me like a Thunderbolt!!!
«I don’t know nothing and I’m scared
that I never will»

You pray to your god, that you’ll never feel so much pain again.
But the agony — has just begun.
Movin’ on, opening new doors,
Life… just doesn’t seem that simple anymore —
And in case I don’t see you again,
