Relief -

been rolling on for many years that thing of god’s decree

the cause would justify the means and spirit came for free

in time I saw the sacrifice the purpose lost its aim

but how on earth once In the habit back out again

no matter how you look at it, it all comes down to this

holding on is agony and letting go is bliss

no matter how you look at it it all comes down to this

holding on is agony and letting go is bliss

the things I have to memorize that seem to save my day

knowing all the details puts you In the lead they say

so stuff your head with crap of every colour, taste and shade

a photographic memory of Pollock’s number Eight

no matter how you look at it, it all comes down to this

holding on is agony and letting go is bliss

the longer that I contemplate this concept of the free

the more I see the parallels to the world surrounding me

one metaphor to cover all, reveal all mysteries

one metaphor to subdivide some of our basic needs

no matter if you shit or if you just get down to piss

holding on is agony and letting go is bliss

no matter how you look at it it all comes down to this

holding on is agony and letting go is bliss
