The years have passed; good times don't last The answers to these questions has turned out to be what nobody suspects Feelings drown, the drumbeats pound, another year another frown I'm bound to stick around to see Whats next Words of fear and icy tears; flowed through the years Like kitchen shears and cut apart my heart so strong and firm While simple lines like "closing time"; "please be mine" And words that rhyme; are pantomimes and lessons I never seem to learn Whats NEXT Don't touch my skin; I'm trapped within; a garbage bin With walls so thin; I feel each pin that pokes into my world This cave, a dark amusement park; with dogs that bark With teeth like sharks; reminding me just how I lost that girl A sultry wench, upon a bench; dug a trench with fists unclenched Admitted she was searching for a plan I told her this, "I know that bliss is held within one single kiss That you and I will miss if you never take my hand Whats NEXT So she and I; we chose to fly; said good-bye; and wondered why A lovers sigh was tried as mortal sin Now that she's gone; I'm up at dawn I carry on; and write each song; as if each feeling never soaked within The decades creep; I'm counting sheep; emotions sleep And drown so deep beneath a sea of apathy and sex This world of sound; is underground The nightmare lives here upside down A wedding gown; another town; a train that's bound to wreck Whats NEXT A union made; in heaven's glade; beneath the shade Of trees that wade; in waters clear and soothing to the toes They seem so fine; like vintage wine; that draws a line From eyes divine; right back to mine; where love is blind and closed A simple phrase; gets turned for days; offers praise But mostly lays; around the room quite permanently lost Goes on a spree; of therapy; there has to be; a price or fee To set us free; and help us see; what freedom really costs Whats NEXT Absolutely no one else; could find their health Upon a shelf of wealthy visions stained with trite regret Nature teaches; preacher preaches; that empty beaches Cannot reach us; blind; beseeched by scenes we can't forget I lost my saving; grace while raving Someone's slaving away while craving; everything I purchased in this dream There's nothing here; but ice cold beer beer; a dried up tear An icy mirror; an inner fear; I cannot steer; and lukewarm sour cream Whats NEXT So lock me down; around this town I'll sell my frown; to Mr. Brown; as long as he has money for to lose He'll click his heels; spin his wheels; make his deals And eat his meals; until he steals the feeling from my shoes A paycheck spent; an accident; 'twas never meant To pay the rent; or drive the bent up lunatic insane But what I learned; each time they burned Everything I ever earned; is that years will turn And wash away the memories and pain Whats NEXT Goodnight my muse; thanks for the clues; I read the news And wandered through; these absent minded nursery rhymes again This little song; goes on and on; and I may write it 'til the dawn It feels so strong; that God chimes in, Amen Kiss me Liza; I won't surprise ya; your bright blue eyes And glassy thighs are; seeping deep inside my crippled soul One more evening; passion seething; breathing, breathing No one leaving; heaving like tsunamis on an ocean start to roll Whats NEXT Tell me mistress; lady listless; they must have witnessed When we kissed; before we hissed and drifted far apart Drive in movies; double features; swamp things; zombies; evil creatures Trying to reach towards places in my heart Please don't find me; gag me; bind me Laughter left a scar behind me; marked like cards in shady dealer's decks Still in all; I walk quite tall; chasing footsteps; down the hall; sticking around to see...What happens next Whats NEXT
