Always

I just lost my final race And I'm about to face Some stormy weather My trip through hell begins I am counting all my sins The more the better Oh I will take the blame Yes I should be ashamed Of being human There's peace and quiet waiting there for me If ever I should need you, you'd be ready If anything should happen you would care But if there's one thing I can count on it's your absence When all the lights are fading you're not there I was such a fool expecting pity Knowing that the sun will always shine In a country where the injured keep on dancing And everybody's always doing fine Whatever they may say I find it easy to betray My own ideals You keep asking me in vain Because still I can't explain How good it feels To be invisible while I'm down To no longer play the clown For you my darling There's peace and quiet waiting there for me If ever I should need you, you'd be ready If anything should happen you would care But if there's one thing I can count on it's your absence When all the lights are fading you're not there I was such a fool expecting pity Knowing that the sun will always shine In a country where the injured keep on dancing And everybody's always doing fine
