Happy Last Year

Happy Last Year As the clock strikes twelve And a new year begins I know that in this hell that's my life My last year alive creeps in You all don't know, all living in hope I hope that this year will bring you great joy, keep you whole But I know I'm spiralling down at a pace The end must be nigh just give me some grace The final countdown on my ticking clock Is racing, the end of my life stepping up I don't want to feel like this constantly down My heart can't take the feeling it's dragging the ground The voice in my head tells me get in the car Just drive to the sea and carry on in far Or down all those pills that you have by your side And end all your sadness while you're still alive Happy Last Year...

Depression of ego leads toward elation of eco-consciousness. Anger, fear, sadness, self and other hatred; all teachers for learning ever more empathic love. Difficult teachers toward more peaceful post-transitions. With thanks and concern, Gerald OLiver
