Joshua smiled, said "listen to reason,
Don't blame me when the walls come tumbling
Down."
So I was adrift on the sea of longing
Awaiting the trumpets to raise your ivory
Gown.
And if only time will tell
Then I can't stand waiting
While the lights are changing on me
Tell it to my own free will
If I lost this thorn from my side
I think I'd die.
Albert Camus said, "living is anguish,"
But don't dare let those ba*tards carry you
Down.
And if this is so then I see no reason
For spending the evening doing anything but going down
Town.
And if only time will tell
Then I can't stand waiting
While the lights are changing on me.
Tell it to my own free will
If I lost this thorn from my side
I'd probably die.
Most likely die
I think I'd die.
