DENIAL

 

It's not my life; it's not my call

I want to separate it all

I do not fuss, that is not me

To separate emotionally

I am not me; I don't exist

So why should I try and resist

Just go along, that's not my deal

A life unlived is so unreal

What is the point of living scared

Nobody did back when we cared

The disavowedly mundane

Is the end of a world urbane

To fester here in self-denial

Deny that this is all worthwhile

Deny that we're all so at ease

Deny denial, if you please

The killjoy sun does bathe my skin

In colours I'm not fitting in

But I don't fit in anywhere

Of that, I'm painfully aware

I play my part; I do it well

Not yet undone that I can tell

I'm still one piece, confusing whole

Perhaps I should rethink my goal

 

But in this song without refrain

There's nothing lost and nothing gained
