Though memories do drip down thick,
The animosity still sits
Caressing me and letting me be free
And all the hours months and days
Have now all vanished, here today
and gone tomorrow just because of you
I climbed mountain,
Swam through thousands upon thousands of small things
That tore me up to kill me
You seem to think that it's a game
But when I grasped a firmer aim,
You left your post beside me,
Left behind me
The quickness of the mind can make
A situation seal its fate,
A termination restoration,
It makes you want to cut them loose
And live the happy life you choose,
to live life idly, not too bidly,
I climbed mountain,
Swam through thousands upon thousands of small things
That tore me up to kill me
You seem to think that it's a game
But when I grasped a firmer aim,
You left your post beside me,
Left behind me
I climbed mountain,
Swam through thousands upon thousands of small things
That tore me up to kill me
You seem to think that it's a game
But when I grasped a firmer aim,
You left your post beside me,
Left behind me

I tried to find the way,
But led myself astray,
Lost amongst the trail,
That's doomed and yet to fail,
But being here with you,
Standing through and through,
Held me center frame,
And kept my wits all sane,
Where's your decency, Jenny?
What are we going to do?
Just live life and do what we want to do?
All the people beside me,
They think it's all a game,
They laugh, jeer, and look
You've just done the same,
The dream deferred's escaped
And brought upon its weight,
It's crushed me down to death,
But you've not lost your breath,
It makes me wonder why
You always undermine,
The role I play for you,
Your stupid enigmatic stooge,
Where's your decency, Jenny?
What are we going to do?
Just live life and do what we want to do?
All the people beside me,
They think it's all a game,
They laugh, jeer, and look
You've just done the same,
