I can do without another tragic end
Throwing dice to wasted lost cause chance
I've been down this straight road to nowhere
Cleaning bones in a redundant romance
Following the white light, she cries for me to follow her
In dreams, at least, I only see for yesterday
It's Satan's promised chaos in the black bayou that laps this beauty made to be destroyed
The sheets that Pollock threw away
Far too late or soon to say if it's too soon or late
Today is only a fraud of what you see
And I admit I never could have seen this come
Tomorrow's just another vacant promise that I still make if only to spite wisdom
In passion and confusion, vicious circles crash to pieces
Anyone can see a shade in blinding light
It's all too clear in retrospect these vagueries were here before
And all too clear I won't believe my eyes
Far too late or soon to say if it's too soon or late
