Follow
at a distance.
Hold a
little light vigil
each night
in your bedroom.
Don't let them
find what moves you.
Put your ear to the wall
listen for your calling; the something
that makes you live and want to give the best;
something that makes you a better person.
Enjoy every last chance you get,
and never, never forget to live!
Destroy what destroys you.
You'll be something like me all too soon.
You can't hate yourself and get on for too long.
Reach out
through the distance.
Hold a
little revival
each night
in your sanctum.
Don't let them
find what's killing you.
Throw your heart through the wall.
Save your arms, cut up whatever else
keeps you back and kills your chance.
Always, you must always keep moving.
Enjoy every last chance you get,
and never, never forget to live!
Destroy what destroys you.
You'll be something like me all too soon.
A monster, kind to be cruel.
You can't hate yourself and get on for too long.
Save yourself.
