Adam's Song


I never thought
I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest
Who'd have known

I trace the cord
Back to the wall
No wonder it was never
Plugged in at all

I took my time
I hurried up
The choice was mine
I didn't think enough

I'm too depressed
To go on
You'll be sorry
When I'm gone

I never conquered
Rarely came
16 just held
Such better days

Days when I
Still felt alive
We couldn't wait
To get outside

The world was wide
Too late to try
The tour was over
We'd survived

I couldn't wait
Till I got home
To pass the time
In my room alone

I never thought
I'd die alone
Another six months
I'll be unknown

Give all my things
To all my friends
You'll never step foot
In my room again

You'll close it off
Board it up
Remember the time
That I spilled the cup

Of apple juice
In the hall
Please tell mom
This is not her fault

I never conquered
Rarely came
16 just held
Such better days

Days when I
Still felt alive
We couldn't wait
To get outside

The world was wide
Too late to try
The tour was over
We'd survived

I couldn't wait
Till I got home
To pass the time
In my room alone

I never conquered
Rarely came
Tomorrow holds
Such better days

Days when I
Can still feel alive
When I can't wait
To get outside

The world is wide
The time goes by
The tour is over
I've survived

I can't wait
Till I get home
To pass the time
In my room alone
