Elegy Lyrics

Howard Jones

Please dont 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
Dont believe in my eyes
Dont believe in my mind
Dont believe in right or wrong
Dont 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
Theres no finish to a life
