lyrics

the day slips away, it reaches its close
i watch as my crooked hands unfold
now i'm awake, my eyes sparkle red
i watch as my good friends lose their heads

is it all downhill from here?
does my happiness dissipate with years?
so i'll close my eyes as i descend
when i know that i'm close to the end
and my winter fear is creeping back again

looking around i'm not in my hometown
i'll never go back to the earth in that cold car again
and it's strange that i find that cold look in your eye
the light there has suddenly died, and the two black holes arrive

is it all downhill from here?
does my happiness dissipate with years?
so i'll close my eyes as i descend
when i know that i'm close to the end
and my winter fear is creeping back again

i'm a simple boy, with simple needs, i let the tide blow me over
i'm simple child, with simple needs, i can't wait till i grow older
i'm a dying man, with endless needs, i put a hole inside my mind
cause now i look for simple things, they're just so hard to find
