Graduate

My mind reminds me of you, 
you're stuck in my life and there's nothing I can do... 
Three little words have haunt me and it's my 
own being thats taunts me...
I've gone this far and made a life without you 
but why do I continue when there's no life 
without you....
High on the thought things will be fine and 
Living as a king with no means to my action 
I'll be damn if my bank questions my 
subtractions...
Schooled by my past and learning it now 
how could I relate to the child I help make 
for the questions that they'll ask will be 
impossible to fake!
Give me my license you call diploma 
and let me wake up from my nightmarish 
coma... 
Get on with my life for Everyone to see that this 
Death in me will eventually be set free!
