What would you think to yourself if death was a certainty? |
FOOT IN A VICE by Owen Smith (Talking) Life may be long pointless and unfair but you donât know what lies ahead, If good, though we are postponing it we will get there extremely soon, if bad then we will have enjoyed these âGolden yearsâ with pride Has it been worth it all? Can you really say thatâs true? Did you ever live life to the full? Does this mean anything to you? Or Is this just the last chapter of a book you didnât enjoy reading But kept persistent âcos you were told it wonât be good at the beginning You feel your life was the price Got one foot in a vice Now waiting for the end Of lack of love and lack of friends Like an evaporating jelly fish A genie whoâs about to grant his final wish Metal teeth into your ankle easy as a knife Nothing really new itâs been like this for your whole life Foot in a vice! Foot in a vice! Drifting to sleep Closer to closure Near to defeat You just want it over Examining your philosophy Have you been too blind to see Whatâs been right in front of your face For all your years months and days? The brutal truth is the brutal truth is scary But the brutal truth is all that can set you free But thereâs nothing you can really do Because thatâs been a secret kept from you Canât wait till you get lack of blood And stare straight at the face of god Because This is just the last chapter of a book you didnât enjoy reading But kept persistent âcos you were told it wonât be good at the beginning You feel your life was the price Got one foot in a vice Now waiting for the end Of lack of love and lack of friends Like an evaporating jelly fish A genie whoâs about to grant his final wish Metal teeth in your ankle easy as a knife Nothing really new itâs been like this for your whole life Foot in a vice! Foot in a vice! Foot in a vice! Foot in a vice. |
