lyrics: J. Morse © 1983 Passed away on a summer's day My soul escaped as my body lay, cold You know I still had something to say to you Come to you in a fevered dream My face appeared through the smoke and steam I know you were aware things weren't as they seemed to you What makes you think they believe a word you say I tried to tell you, but you wouldn't listen anyway Now they think you're a fool, gone astray in the wild You spin your wild tales of ghosts and confusion You say I'm after you, but it's only illusion Besides, I mean you no harm, you're just acting the child Do you see me? Can you visualize? Can you hear me? I tell you no lies But you don't understand at all You shun me and ignore the call. . . You're running away from me You're running away. . . running away. Now you're desperate for help and attention They're holding you in padded, safe detention You make your escape try to find someone on your side I find you again, won't you listen to reason You don't comprehend, you accuse me of treason That's okay, 'cause I know you've got no place to hide Now the chase is near and end, I've found you I've got you cornered now, can't you see what I'm after No, you don't understand, you've given up and you've died! |
