Elegy Lyrics - Singles - Jones Howard

Please don't look at me this way 

I am from the same seed as you 

Take me back to the womb 

I am weary of this life 

Don't believe in my eyes 

Don't believe in my mind 

Don't believe in right or wrong 

Don't believe in cruel or kind 

But all this talk is only poetry 

Only as true as we would believe 

We must live to fight the negative 

Not to court the self in defeat oh oh oh oh 

In defeat oh oh oh oh 

Oh the pain of life is sweet 

Is it wrong to long for death? 

Must I cling to the thrills of life 

Ash to ash and dust to dust 

But all this talk is only poetry 

Only as true as we would believe 

We must live to fight the negative 

Not court the self in defeat oh oh oh oh 

In defeat oh oh oh oh 

You have looked at me this way 

We are all from the same seed 

Take us forward through the tomb 

There's no finish to a life
