My Death Lyrics by Newtown Neurotics

Punk Collection (Captain Oi)

1983

Once again my mind is in a mess
A general feeling of worthlessness
That draws me to the darker side of life
All of my friends, everyone that I've met
I feel a compulsive need to impress
So I may feel someone's on my side
Chorus:
Hold me, love me
Stay with me until my death, my death
Sometimes I feel I'm pushing boulders
Up a mountainside
Sometimes when I wake I feel like a king
But by mid-afternoon I know I'm nothing
Without that constant reassurance throughout the day
No man is an island when it comes to his needs
But he tramples on others to satisfy these
Oh God, some of the games we play
Chorus:
Hold me, love me
Stay with me until my death, my death
Sometimes I feel I'm pushing boulders
Up a mountainside
I'd love to pick a strawberry while I'm hanging from this ledge
Dreamt I surrendered to a merciless sea
Tired, so tired of it battering me
" I'm just as puzzled now as you"
That may be so, but you still cling to the raft
Terrified of the infinite dark
We're all just frightened people cowering from ourselves
I'd like to live for the moment, live for today
And savour any pleasures that come my way
But how can I do that when my in-growing toenail is killing me?
Today is dull, that's what we're told
We live for an expectation or a memory
Chorus:
Hold me, love me
Stay with me until my death, my death
Sometimes I feel I'm pushing boulders
Up a mountainside
We're all just frightened people cowering from ourselves
