“Vicariously Me”

The pain is lessening by the actions of many before you, my love.
Although I don’t understand you’re not wanting happiness,
Efficaciously you have broken again this delicate person again.
Who gonna save me now, who gonna take their time to effectively love me.
I know enough, but not enough to sustain the interest you lost in us, thus
Who gonna love me now, who gonna cry for me…. Growing old is not golden,
My pessimistic spirit glooms over me as a shadow of an eclipse sun; who gonna
Hold me now, who gonna dry my tears.
Who gonna hold me down, who gonna save my soul;
It’s funny how someone else’s song, tells you story to the bold;
After it’s all said and done.
