There's no escape From the pain Here it comes again Wearing my graveyard skin As the night descends But I'm not ready No, I'm not ready To go No, not ready To go Roll me over And raise my head Lift my arms Throw away my meds One more ride Round the park where we played One last trip To the lake where we bathed Youth was an awkward time Never got it right Shadows captured my mind So afraid of life False idols led me astray And my spirit waned
Routine made me its slave In the tomb I made And now I'm ready Oh, now I'm ready To aaaaaaaahhhhh... Take the dance I refused you That night Fly to Greenland And glide On the ice Sail the Kwai Make love in Bangkok Spend more time In your heavenly spot And now I'm ready. Oh, now I'm ready To aaaaaaaaaahhhh… It's late But I'm ready So late But I'm ready It's late But I'm ready To aaaaaaaahhhhh…. Aaaaah...
