It takes a lot of time

It takes a lot of time
To stay alive
It takes a lot of wine
To have a good time
And that’s not right
That living ain’t right
Imagine my surprise
To find I’m still doing fine
It’s takes a lot of time
To stay alive
It takes a lot of money
If you wanna live the high life
And if that’s how you roll
Well that’s just fine
But that’s not for me
So I’m just gonna say goodbye
It takes a lot of time
It takes up all the time
It takes a lot of effort
If you want to be a healthy guy
Well I’ve got a watch
It tells me the time
And I’ve got a telephone
If you want to reach a Luddite
I'm taking all my time, taking
all the time it takes to stay alive
I eat
I drink
I breathe real deep
I sleep deep sleep

A long long way

It’s a long long way to Heaven
And its a long long way to hell
And if you’re stuck right here in the middle
You either climbed up or you fell
Well you take what you are given
And try your best to live well
But it’s a long climb back into heaven
And a slippery slope into hell
You will never be forgiven
You took the one thing you can’t return
Time is precious and wasted
That was a no fun lesson to learn
It was always gonna go sideways
It was never gonna end that well
There was always something missing
And that something was always there
Idle hands hold a glass and a bottle
When there‘s too much time to think
You can wallow and drown your sorrow
And watch your broken heart bleed
But there’s only time for living
And there’s not enough time to kill
‘Cause it’s a long climb back into heaven
And a slippery slope into hell

All my friends

You always uncool
a loner in school
They didn’t know that you were gonna.. get so…beautiful
And me
Slowly turning green
You’re the queen on the scene
I’m lying if I say it doesn’t get to me
I know that I should quit
I’m completely over it
And it makes me feel like…
Well, not very good
But I’m
A creature every time
Oozing out of the slime
I can’t get out of my prehistoric mind
I’m afraid I must insist
Aliens exist
I know it seems a little bit ludicrous
And you
Always aloof
Show me where’s the proof
Climb down off the roof
They’re not coming for you

Lady Gray, I'm coming off my meds today
It's alright, I feel okay
All my life, all my life I'm in my way
I'm on my way so I can't talk about it
Lady Gray, I've got so much shame
But I love you anyway
No, what am I saying?
I cannot get away fast enough
Did you see that guy?
All dressed in tops and tails
Look at those well-groomed fingernails
He's just a little man, but he's got a lot to say
And a lot of it's not great
Oh Lady gray, how do you feel today?
I'm not used to things not going my way
It's okay, I'll make it through someway
I'm doing alright, I can't complain
There's a light at the end of the road I can see and we'll get there
Get there on day
There's a light at the end of the road I can see and you'll be there
Be there for me
Oh Lady Gray, I'm so tired of feeling this way
Of Lady Gray, I'm so tired today
