I read the sad decline Of one of the greatest minds Who after 90 years Was left with too much time I wrote the distance closer Am I a beacon or the vultures? A medic with no morphine Just hope to help the pain ease When we die does it even really happen If no one is there to hear it happen? Her stubborn English blood Is thoroughbred and tough She dug her grave too deep To just step in and sleep And I'm in the city flow But it's too fast to let go Beyond the green and grey But not at heaven's gate When we die does it even really happen If no one is there to hear it happen? I see you're scared to love They say you love to hate Is there a difference anyway? You are a solid rock You are the hardest place And you're the only thing stuck in your way
