and of all of the things the madness I missed.

you are my years you are my strife,
I got to go, I got to go.
With all the time that’s passing by,
you’d think I’d find the words but I
have got to go and play the farewell show.

and I can’t say I sought to drink them away.

I feel alright and that's a lie,
you are my years you are my strife,
I got to go, I got to go.
With all the time that’s passing by,
you’d think I’d find the words but I
have got to go and play the farewell show.
