lyrics

Ron, I get scared just like you
when I take a look at my life
and I don’t know what to do.
Ron, I get scared just like you
when I take a look at my life
and I know it through and through.

I read books to get a taste of dream wine,
to see if anyone has found what I find.
What a waste of time.
Ah it’s such a waste of time!

Thought that an adult would have to be strong to remain living.
And I do have some feeling that a kind of strength
could be given to me for a time.
Oh Ron, I could turn on a dime.

Even though it all seems to be wrong,
I feel light on my feet, rising falling strong.
Falling and rising by a force that never rests,
which leaves me to feel skinned areas fresh.

Now when breathe, I breathe from some other breath.
And when I eat I seek life from some other breast.
And I cry some other tears when no self-sadness is left,
Ron.
