a world
where
roses seldom grow
there
where a warm wind
will seldom blow
where a rainbow
will never glow
a place where
i don't want ta' go

back ta' the bottle
body & soul
full throttle
down an empty hole

a place
where the sky
taint' never blue
only clouds
gray
old whispers
shout out louds
with "You"
and "Why?"
only an old "Good-Bye"
only a sad cry

a place
with no Today
with no Tomoorow
only sorrow
and Yesterday
no words to pray
no words to say
no poems to play
no songs ta' sing
only old melodies
and old histories
only memories
and what they bring

no Spring
no Fall
only hot Summer
& cold Winter
that's All
what a bummer
a place
i don't want ta' enter

a place
where roses seldom grow
a place
i don't want ta' go
