Every Time I Die - Overstayer lyrics

I should have drown in the flood with the rest I had the chance The current was pitiless And proof of man was wiped from the face off the earth, the song, the dance I should have gone with it Alas, alas I'm stranded alone in the wake Now I have lost all sight of the grave When did I ever say that I want to be saved? I can see for miles but it doesn't look the same When no road has been paved, Go up Go up Go up Go up Now how am I gonna get down? I want a slow d**h wrought from the dregs "I want to be sedated' Just like joey said. I want the heaviest heart I have eaten my weight in gold I can see only what I'm shown up here But in the coals with common men who yearn for ordinary things love cannot find us So get out of my way I got out of my own way Better a tramp, than a captive Better alone than lonely with all these "friends" What in the f** am I doing here? Why did the rapture not take me in? It is my curse to carry on. I should have died when I was young I should still be burning lung If i had known what I'd become I should have drown in the flood with the rest I had the chance, But here I am.
