15.If You Want It
I can't keep a straight face and say this is not the end
Not if you want it, it's upon us and I wanna say it's sinking in
If I was hasty, maybe I was rushed along
I will move into little boxes and then not give the urge to move
on
So think real slow, don't forget that yes is yes and no is no
Melting prince of grass and snow,
means I may forget the way to get back home
Cause this is the end if you want it, this is the end
You're not the first thing in my life I've loved and lost
Yeah, I've thought worse things
that I might be less inclined to really just shrug off
You'll take me home, like my family did, my father did, I know
You'll think real slow, don't forget the speed that I can go
Cause this is the end if you want it, this is the end
I've been convincing myself that I'm worthwhile
Cause I'm worth what I'll convince myself to be
Been convincing myself that I'm worthwhile
Cause I'm worth what I'll convince myself to be
I met the devil and I stared her in the eyes
Her hair had scales like silver serpents high as statues,
stood there mesmerized
I took the fire escape and made it out alive
Yeah, I still burn from time to time,
but I've a healing hand against my side
Blisters on my feet I crawl back home,
frozen from the sleet, burns, sand and stone
Nourished back to life by life alone,
one shake of the mane may gain the throne
