Well What the Hell
As one door closes
And another is flung
Open wide
Bad moons in my room again
Who will decide
As we float out
On a sea of chance
Disdain
Remains
Unclaimed
Just another circumstance
In my crystal ball
I see a story as yet untold
The truth belies
Her beauty there
Perfume lingers in the air
Or so that story goes
People come in
And leave out
And all the while
She’s still standin there
Ready to repair
All the damage done
It’s just a shame
you don’t know
It
Just a shame
You don’t know it yet
Ready to leave her
out of the bet
Spinning a revolving
wheel of fortune
Lethargy strides along side
The four horsemen
As she rolls the dice of Vice
You circumvent their
Relentless torsion
Build it up
And smash it down
Again
Silencing your only friend
Is that ticket
Worth
It’s price
of
Admission?
The orbital mechanics
All suddenly vanish
And when you’ve finally found your voice
Will you still have a soul ?
Make the right choice ?
Could be good
Could be bad
And still it’s there
Well,
What the hell ?
Aren’t you glad
You’ve spent your whole life
On a wish
a song
A hope
and a prayer
