Doing Time

See the fight
Old men crying, deny their ruin
Watch them try
The cynic laughs at the optimist's closed eyes

Darkness falls, curtain calls
The cynic's beer soon overflows
Other watches, has a seat
And from the same cup, they drink

I'm doin' time, how long I don't know
William had 26, blew his brains out, now look at him
John had only one, watch the mother mourn her only son
I'm doing time, how long I don't know
I'll kiss goodbye my brain and body and go to sleep for generations
And go to sleep for generations

Salvation
Cease concentration
You'll only lose the fight
Don't tell me what's wrong or right!
You're losing sight
You're just gonna die anyway!
