O Tony, wherefore dost thou feel out of sorts?
Existing so - tho' not soothly living.
Haps thou art the living dead which resorts
Into its cold chamber ne'er living....

It was almost perfect
So I almost believed
That almost was 
Absolutely to me

We almost loved each other
And you nearly fooled me
But may haps it was 
Never meant to be

We almost made it
But the road was too rough
And almost was never
Quite enough...

this is my rite
right now
but it has
slipped
into
the

abyissmal
pit in my
gut that
takes
away
my

breath and
as i reel
punch
drunk
i feel
per

haps gasping
for air that
wasn't for
me but
for
a

nother and as
i take another
breath i seem
to somewhat
realize that
that was
me but

just moments
ago and not
even now
because
all the
time

time keeps
marching
on with
or with
out
me...

It's time to book a holiday
Where we'll go I cannot say
A beach resort, or bush retreat
Maybe a chalet cosy, sweet

Maybe somewhere across the seas
In Bali they tell me "life's a breeze"
Somewhere I haven't been before
Same, same, it can be a bore

Now I know, I have a plan
Perhaps I'll take a pin in hand
Stick it somewhere on a map
This could do the trick may haps

But I want to go somewhere
Just anywhere I just don't care...
