Penance |
I watch the clock hands go by, time after time |
I dream of leaving this place |
If I could leave the past behind |
Then I would just fade away, and cease to exist |
Well, it would cleanse all my pain |
It’s a shame that I ever lived |
The devil on my shoulder, he whispers to me |
And dribbles such a never-ending cacophony |
Into my ear to blind the joy that tries to reach out to me |
Such a dulcet suffering, why can’t anyone see? |
Penance: a lesson in misery |
You studied my rise as you watched my fall |
I wrote my love in the cracks of the cracks of the wall |
You’ll read that «Dying in vain, it was as good as it looked» |
In a forget-me-not written in the spine of a book |
I’ve wasted my time falling in love |
With the thought of falling in love with someone |
Am I killing time, or killing myself? |
I think I’m killing myself sometimes, oh |
Penance: a lesson in misery |
Penance: a lesson in misery |
You studied my rise as you watched my fall |
I wrote my love in the cracks of the cracks of the wall |
You’ll read that «Dying in vain, it was as good as it looked» |
In a forget-me-not written in the spine of a book |
Well, I could never grow trees |
Still, I planted my seeds |
Sadly, you will see, eternal sunshine won’t blossom me |
I am enough to feel happiness and love |
It’s hard to say out loud, «I deserve to be happy now» |
Well, I deserve to be happy now |
You, penance: a lesson in misery |
Well, I deserve to be happy now |
