It Is Hard To Turn the Page

it is hard to turn the page
when you want to go back
to a time when everybody you loved f
from a Special Place in your heart was alive

however, i try
everyday, i lie
i try to be....the guy
i end up asking....'oh why'

it is hard to turn the page
when you want to run up 
a steep hill just to go on 
with your plan to tumble 
down and hopefully break 
Your Crown

however, i try
everyday, i lie
i just curl myself in a ball.....and sigh
i end up wanting to say.....'bye bye'

it is hard to turn the page 
when you want to build a time
machine with no blueprint, only 
blues, and with no skill even 
microscopically apparent

however, i try
i am the coyote always losing.....no tie
i just want to go deep in the woods somewhere.....and drink lye
i end up getting all timid.....and shy
