You have the world before you
with the rich golden haze of fortune...
"I live on the edge;
buy bread and don't even check...
Used to be the burning questions
were about the meaning of life...
When the world conspires
that you succeed with only...
I lay here next to you
with death between us...
Fortune is god's way of teasing us
giving the illusion of happiness...
Stumps from drought
scar the park...
Never let a day
go by without at least once...
Trees that dot the landscape
prove that men may die alone...
Still I seek resurrection
from mold of Christmas...
What can I say to you
that has not been rendered...
It always starts the same:
I find myself in a resort hotel...
