Suicide Is Painless Lyrics - Nick Drake

Through early morning fog I see 

visions of the things to be 

the pains that are withheld for me 

I realize and I can see... 

 

[REFRAIN] 

 

That suicide is painless 

it brings on many changes 

and I can take or leave it if I please. 

 

I try to find a way to make 

all our little joys relate 

without that ever-present hate 

but now I know that it's to late, and... 

 

REFRAIN 

 

The game of life is hard to play 

I'm going to lose it anyway 

the losing card I'll someday lay 

so this is all I have to say 

 

REFRAIN 

 

The only way to win is cheat 

and lay it down before I'm beat 

and to another give my seat 

for that's the only painless feat 

 

REFRAIN 

 

The sword of time will pierce our skins 

it doesn't hurt when it begins 

but as it works its way on in 

the pain grows stronger...watch it grin but... 

 

REFRAIN 

 

A brave man once requested me 

to answer questions that are key 

is it to be or not to be 

and I replied 'oh why ask me?' 

 

'Cause suicide is painless 

it brings on many changes 

and I can take or leave it if I please 

 

...and you can do the same thing if you please.
