I cannot touch any farther than my arms allow me reach.
I cannot breathe any deeper but have nothing I wish to sing.
If I could just lie here until it is over, until it all washes away,
Consequences would not be seen, I'd choose to again die today.
I cannot breathe any deeper but have nothing I wish to sing.
If I could just lie here until it is over, until it all washes away,
Consequences would not be seen, I'd choose to again die today.
I cannot be content every hour continuously 'round the clock.
I cannot find happiness all the time in this little bag I bought.
If I could just wave a wand and be done, my quest would be in vain.
Wisdom would pass me by once more as I return to seeking the same.
