Fighting my demons all over the place
Seems to be the absence of leather and lace
Sometimes I want to vanish from the human race
Just don't know if I can keep up with the pace,

Oh my baby baby what if you had stayed?
With my luck I would have paid and paid
Maybe after all it was better that you strayed
Please don't ask me why I seem dismayed,

Could you give me directions to the nearby undergound base?
You see I don't know what God's plans are for the human race
It just seems so long ago that I fell from grace
Maybe I should go hiking and disappear without a trace,

Do I hear footsteps echoing from the past?
It's not the rare, precious, joy but the pain that lasts
Looking at my life what role have I been cast?
The gulf between man and God seems to be quite vast,

Tell me, old wise man, what advise can you lend?
Is dementia the final reward in the end?
Abandonment, is that the new popular trend?
What did I do to make loneliness my only friend?

They say you don't get what you deserve in life
When it's the evil ones who cause all the strife
Was it all in the way I rolled the dice?
There's nothing like heartbreak cutting like a knife,

They say move forward and never look back
Does running out on your spouse help clear out the plaque?
Life is like a bomber flying through heavy flak
You'll never succeed if you don't stay on the attack,

My wounded Princess your heart grew so cold
When you couldn't control then you would scold
It seems like in the game of life I've been paroled
In the end does it really matter, truth be told.
