No Prayer

There's no prayer I could say,
no advice I could take, no pill that would make me
feel better. There's no fountain to seek,
no cup I could drink. I know of nothing that ever grew
younger. But the universe it must go on forever,
just like two mirrors that are facing each other.
It's reality upon illusion over and over until you
can't tell the difference, they both just blend together.

And I just put each day in a box on a calendar,
winter to summer. And I'll go walking in that same
circle for as long as I can remember.
I just keep hoping that someone would make me a better
offer. Cause I know the end that we see from our balcony
is barely the beginning.

So I'm up on the fence and I'm still not convinced.
Can't decide which side looks greener.
So I just stay where I am,
remain indifferent. What happens, what's happened it's easier.

I'll go ahead and drown myself in the fluids of another.
Yeah my woman to me was as pure and essential as water.
And so she looked like me for awhile but she does no
longer cause she took the shape of whatever it was
that held her. She killed the fear in my heart but
our love also got murdered.
She said my child you can no longer sing of that fever
cause it's selfish and you are not selfish.
You must get stronger. So I know when your lover leaves
I guess all you can be is forgiving.
