One last time
Stop the world from spinning; I want to get off.
This life of mine is moving way too fast and I have had enough.
I’ve done all I could and what have I got?
A broken heart, a broken mind and I never did finish writing that book.
Love is a stain on an otherwise ordinary life;
My life is a stain on an extraordinary planet.
Greatness falls and shame and pity will not apologise;
I could have done it all, but now I have been left damaged.
I'm sat here in my favourite chair, smoking my life away;
I’m stood here looking out a window, wondering where it all went.
I’m torn asunder; it rains, it thunders,
But still I cannot find a reason to stay.
Out into the blue, I drown in sorrow and there is nothing left.
One last time, I write one last line;
I write one last line, one more time.
One last line, just once again in time;
Just one more time I will write my last line.
