First Thoughts On Forever

Words and Music by Neil McGrath © 2004

I'd turn inside out to show you my soul
Scary to think of it on display
But you don't want to know
And I don't like to show
So watch me
Or we'll watch the stars together
And I know I'll have burnt out
Before the star has even faded

Live fast, die fast
Youth is for the young but I feel old
I feel ugly to myself and look no better
Morality is my guiding light
On that tightrope
Until I explode
And I say what I feel
"Fuck your stupid conversation"

Where’s it going? Where’s it at?
Too far away and distant, for me to understand

So I'll reply and smirk inside
Enraged and full of hatred
Contempt for your pointless life
My hopeless situation
So I will work, not for money
No not that
For piece of mind
And light at the end of the tunnel

For love that I can give or find
To bring me back to feel
Happy, not sad

And so it's written and said they'll have their time once again
There'll be a lover beside you in this garden of the world
There'll be a mixed up boy who'll meet a mixed up girl
It's cold outside but yeah winter it looks beautiful in grey
I'd like to hold you because you look beautiful today
I wouldn't like you to know but I think you'd find out anyway
I love you so but I always feel for things that slip away
Things that slip away
It's only fair that I should say
It's gonna be o.k.

I've had my first thoughts on forever.
