about

I wrote this song in early April, then went to the Colorado mountains, returned to Ohio, went to release another April song, found this one in my by mistake, had forgotten I wrote it, began to worry about my memory, added a clumsy double bass line, and here it is.

lyrics

The end is the beginning the beginning is the end
Every friend is now a stranger every stranger is a friend
I am leaving I am living I'm finally moving on
In the morning I won’t be here in the morning I’ll be gone!

There’s a nightmare in the dream that keeps my sleep awake all night
There’s light up in the darkness and there’s darkness in the light
I won’t pick up what you’re putting down no matter what you say
I don’t know when I was born but it wasn’t yesterday
I am leaving I am living I'm finally moving on
In the morning I won’t be here in the morning I’ll be gone!


We are captives in your freedom we’ve seen time and time before
Oh your war it brings us peace and your peace it brings us war
I feel drunk when I am sober I am sober when I drink
All this thinking is so scary that I’m too afraid to think
I am leaving I am living I'm finally moving on
In the morning I won’t be here in the morning I’ll be gone!

I won’t quit if I don’t stay here if to stay here is to quit
Where my hit’s they keep on missing and my misses never hit
The end is the beginning the beginning is the end
Every friend is now a stranger every stranger is a friend
I am leaving I am living I'm finally moving on
In the morning I won’t be here in the morning I’ll be gone!
