"Waste Away" lyrics - CREIGHTON DOANE

CREIGHTON DOANE
"Waste Away"
(Doane)

I'm not sorry
I'm not angry
I don't hate you
Nor am I desperately unhappy

In tiny ways I'm feeling strong
I feel the earth beneath me
Even when the universe is all wrong

I won't waste away
Feed my sould, I'm hungry
I won't waste away
I'm going to live

I'll be rich
Or I'll die poor
If there's a difference
I don't care anymore
Is everyone afraid to laugh
Well I can't help myself
In spite of everything I do not have

The weight of all this waiting
The wasted and denied
I picture it quite differently
I'd like to think the dead are dying
