Once there was a nothing
|
The voices rang so true
|
The knowledge that was lacking
|
Cut innocence in two
|
Everything seemed too good to be right
|
When I was 16
|
I was too uptight
|
Now disappointment's shadow
|
Reveals a colder time
|
A harder kind of living
|
In disillusion
|
How can it go
|
The fear of the night
|
Now I am grown
|
I'm just too uptight
|
|
A slow and noble breakdown of personality
|
Careless, heartless, soulless,
|
No dignity
|
My days are flown
|
And I can't recall
|
Feeling so alone
|
Was I so uptight
|
|
Death creeps ever closer
|
A darkness falls in me
|
A scared fragmented loner
|
Unholy
|
A night with no end
|
An echoing sea
|
I'll think about me
|
How I'm too uptight
|
