Would you like it I just up and left
Just up and went, to Dublin, Ireland
Would you be scared if I got on a train
And ventured over the Northeast Atlantic
I hate it when I say I hate it when
And I'm pretty sure everyone else feels the same
They're all tired of such a negative
Outlook towards it all, everything in general
I have never said and actually did
Anything that I can call a commitment
I can talk a game, and then I fail to win
It's all just smoke and mirror images
If the day came when
My life were to end
Weather I take it myself, or have a heart attack
Die of old age or natural causes
On that fatal day, do you think you'd attend
My funeral
Join my family and friends
Offer condolences to both of my parents
Would you laugh and cry and the photo collages
Would you blame yourself for never saying it
I have made a mess of nearly everything
I've got to take a stand and not just dwell on it
I don't have a crystal ball or a time machine
Still I have to pave the road I'm walking on.
