lyrics

Dying Too Slowly
C J Leon

Why do I fall in love?
It's never the fun that I hoped it would be?
Why do I drink so much?
It's never the fun that I want it to be.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.

Why do I think so much?
I never get done what I wanted to do.
Why do I take my time?
I never get done whom I wanted to do.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.

How can I trust my boss?
He turns my hard work into minimum wage.
What did I get for all my school?
University trained for the minimum wage.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.

Why do I pick my nose?
Those green things'll just grow back there again.
Why do I clean my room?
Those green things'll just grow back there again.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.

Why do I change my clothes?
They've all got holes and they're never clean.
Why do I choose my girls?
They've all got homes that they never clean.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.

Why don't I make up my mind?
One's just as good as any other.
Why don't I end it all here?
Now's as good a time as any other.

In this world we're dying too slowly or already dead.
