And if I sink before I fall make sure to tell nobody I cared for them at all for if I did I could not look them in the face for when I get out of this rut I'm not sure if I can make a swift escape I don't know how to make a way without my hand and shovel getting in the way My hand, my shovel, my right, my left If I could stand I would have left But I can't so l stay and pray for a life where I do not live in disarray For your soft gaze is no longer soft whilst my crooked smile stays the same I cannot help but have disdain for the man who thinks he is a Great Dane
