Drawn To The Deep End - Gene

You can feel every pulse of your blood

Reminding you the days slip on by, as they should

But nothing has been done

You rarely see the sun

A house barely clean never could

Bring yourself to rise

For a life, fantasise

Of diving in the deep end, the water offers changes

I can feel every twisted, dead bone

But I have seen the city

It’s young, their hopes

The town boys roaring by

Sometime I wanna die

Long to live

Tell me why should I leave

The comfort of my room, with it’s dirt inches deep?

So why do people bother?

I HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER

Everyone has a place, I know mine

In bed where I was born, where I’ll live, where I’ll die

The longing is long gone

I’m boredom’s latest son

Oh do you cry for a life ever spring?

Winter is a fading, and dim memory

Go take what you have not

And leave me here to rot

I can feel every twisted, dead bone

I have seen the city

It’s young, their hopes

The town boys roaring by

Sometimes I wanna die
