When leaving the scene of my fall You’re choosing the words on my headstone While waiting in vain for your call I’m carving the words in my headstone I’m running my head against the wall When turning your back on my grief You’re closing the lid on my casket And you’ll be a liar and a thief When stealing away from my deathbed When leaving me in disbelief And I will go under and I will go blind I will endure everything that I’ll find And I will surrender And finally, oh, I will come back to my mind And now that you’re well out of sight I’m slowly retrieving my beauty I wonder who gave you the right To hold down my life absolutely To keep me away from the light
