Thinking while I’m sleeping A restless spirit worried Laughing while I’m crying A recovered imposter Screaming while I'm silent My everything is buried Searching while I’m dormant A tortured man without her I am hopeful, but I’m hopeless A walking contradiction I am cheerful, but I’m cheerless A Basket Case convention I am praying, but I’m prayerless My faith, I can’t uphold I am fearful, but I’m fearless For her, I'd sell my soul Lifeless, yet I’m breathing Ever since I lost her Certain, yet I’m doubtful She has never gone away Leaving, yet I’m staying I'll be with her forever Dying, yet I'm living I'll end my death today "If this grand panaorama before me is what you call God... then God is not dead." |
