Give me one reason
To keep holding on
Keep checking up
Keep watching on

Maybe I already know
Why I am holding on
Just checking up
Always watch on

Throw the witch in the gutter
Can you listen to her cry?
Don’t pray, yon boy in the gutter
Can’t you see him scream?

So here is the answer
Question it not
Just keep checking up
Keep watching on

Wax paper it flows
Over their eyes
Don’t want to check up?
Can’t keep watching on?

Throw the witch in the gutter
Can you listen to her cry?
Don’t pray, yon boy in the gutter
Can’t you see him scream?

You wish yourself blind?
So you cannot see
Won’t check up
Won’t watch forever on

Feel the pain for now
Grateful you feel at all
Keep checking up
Keep watching on

Throw the witch in the gutter
Can you listen to her cry?
Don’t pray, yon boy in the gutter
Can’t you see him scream?


OH SHUT UP SHUT UP AND GIVE SOMEONE ELSE A CHANCE!!!!

I liked it, it was different. It really did make me think, made me want to reread it. =]
