Ill be checking out soon. I can no longer live in gloom. If you seek me Ill be gone. So youd better say so long.
Ill be reaching toward the sky, Where I no longer have to cry. If I spread my wings Ill fly. But first I have to die.
Of that I have no fear. Peace at last seems very clear. So dont call me here again, For my resistance is wearing thin.
I dont exactly have a plan. But why go on as half a man. Many others will be better off, When Im 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. Im just tired of my worthless name.
