I can no longer live in gloom. If you seek me I’ll be gone. So you’d better say so long. I’ll be reaching toward the sky, Where I no longer have to cry. If I spread my wings I’ll fly. But first I have to die. Of that I have no fear. Peace at last seems very clear. So don’t call me here again, For my resistance is wearing thin. I don’t exactly have a plan. But why go on as half a man. Many others will be better off, When I’m planted in my plot. I hear the whistle upon the train, On the tracks in the pouring rain. I go to where I hurt no more. Across a gulf on a brighter shore. As my departure is drawing near, There is one thing I want made clear. No one else is to be blamed. I’m just tired of my worthless name.
