All men have secrets
And here is mine,
So let it be known, on the eve of my impending doom
I listen to the songs that reflect my life
And I thought, I was going to make it, and break it
BUT
My life was nothing more than a tease, to torment and tantalize
See the life I have had would make a good man turn bad.
And there was a hand that rocked that cradle and it could have been mine
This gave me comfort you would not understand.
However, that night opened my eyes and I will never sleep again
That dream is gone, I did a good thing
She could have been a poet or a fool, I did a bad thing.
And I am not happy and I am not sad!
There is no one left to blame but myself,
And I know time is against me now.
Now I am so tired and I want to go to bed
Please don’t try to wake me in the morning I hope I will be gone.
Don’t feel bad for me I want you to know.
Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go.
These words I sung and thought when I was young
Good times I might have had
Are not the times of this current man!
I haven’t had a dream in a long time
So, for once in my life let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time
It’s so easy to laugh and hate,
It take strength to be gentle and kind
Love is natural and real, but not for me
Not for me.
I was never meant to be here anyway.
It’s too close to home and too close to the bone
I never felt comfortable in this world anyway.  
Still I cling
See the sea wants to take me the night wants to slit me.
Can anyone help me?
No.
See I know it’s over
I know it’s over, and it really NEVER began, but in my heart it was so real
I wonder will you hear me when I sleep
Will you see me when I pass?
This is the last stand of all I am.
This is your world not mine.
Please keep me in mind
There is a better world
Oh, I hope so
Oh, there must be.
So, sing me to sleep, please sing me to sleep.
Deep in the cell of my heart I really want to go….
