1.
There's a painting on my wall Tells a tale of another time Seems so much better than this one There's a man in a coonskin cap Looking off into the Rockies He is still, yet says a thousand words And I can't tell If it's him or I Starring off into nothing, off to a better place As time crawls relentlessly Into the moment, destroying everything I take the painting from the wall Rest it upon a wooden chair Hold in a deep breath, finish off the beer I smile into the light That is radiating from the clock Smash the bottle, press my face into the glass
2.
In remission of a mind, watch and listen to find The position behind this illusion of time Got me counting my dimes so on the bus I can ride I'm even doubting the rhyme, I'm in no rush I can hide Because I know that I tried, no longer taking a side Tears don't flow from my eyes, no longer go for the lies I don't protest or resist, I'm not invested in this I'm backing out of the fight to give my spirit tonight Gazing at the phase of an overcast day Watching rain fall from a dim cafe Can't see the wind but I see the trees sway Now the evening's kiss got me fading away Just fading away Just fading away Fading away Drip-drop, window pane hypnotic Clip-clop, concrete heels on it I'm still disillusioned and cool catatonic Always in a daze without smoking that chronic And the door's still open at the end of the day And I'm still hoping without much to say Ask me how I'm feeling; well I'm full of shit 'n doubt Ask me who I'm with and I'll tell you I'm without These phantasm women got me swimming through the sea Apprehension steady creeping, whirlpool is pulling me So I might as well relax, go down with the flood 'Cause my hearts been attacked and the sharks smell my blood If I lose consciousness and I wake in the shore I will never complain I will never get old
