Mr. Murray

Life is worst when you don�t want it anymore;

Two minds collapse, two minds at war;

You�re the last person left in this lonely town;

Take it all back, tear it all down,

--->Because life is worst when you don�t want it anymore.

It�s no good when each spoken word

Comes back to every song lyric you�ve heard;

You�re sick of the coldness surging through your veins;

But for some odd reason, there is no real pain,

--->Because life is worst when you don�t want it anymore.

Rewinding situations back and forth through your head,

Remembering every word that�s ever been said;

Not even the devil will sit on your shoulder;

The angel�s side has even grown colder,

--->Because life is worst when you don�t want it anymore.

But relief overcomes as each wake-up call

Strangely, yet quietly, tears down those weak walls;

It was really a whisper, sent to revive the youth

It will always be resonating; it knows the truth,

--->Because life is worst when you don�t want it anymore.

NOTE: Don't worry, I'm fine.
