Damascus (remastered)

Years ago, you said to me

I think I'm losing the fight

Or the fight's losing me, I'm not certain

And here we are the closing scenes

And all the house lights come up

Oh, the falling of our final curtain

I've played a role for so long that I've forgotten myself

But I said I'd be there and I'm keeping my word

You've played yourself so well

And now I want to be you

A great imitation of losing my nerve

So, it's over

And everything is wrong

Everything has gone

And I know that everything means nothing

Oh, it's over

But I don't wanna fight

I don't want to be right

I know that everything means nothing

On the road to Damascus they fell

I saw the light, I saw the light!

But hey, it never saw me

Oh, conversion has just left me heathen

And we could wait a thousand years

Perhaps a million or more

If it's worth waiting for, but I'm leaving

So on to a mecca of earthly delights

Depression is only desire deprived

Once more unto the breach and **** my getting it right

We've died for so long

let's just get out alive

Cause it's over

And everything is wrong

Everything has gone

And I know that everything means nothing

Oh, it's over

But I don't wanna fight

I don't want to be right

I know that everything means nothing

On the road to Damascus they fell

Well I've been to Damascus

It's hell, hell is where I'm gonna be

The devil my intimate friend

And hell is other people's hearts

And knowing that everything must end

Oh, it's over

And everything is wrong

Everything has gone

And I know that everything means nothing

Oh, it's over

But I don't wanna fight

I don't want to be right

I know that everything means nothing

Oh, it's over

Oh, it's over

But I don't wanna fight

I don't want to be right

I know that everything means nothing

On the road to Damascus they fell

Well, I've been to Damascus as well
