I've woken up on mornings such as this   And thought exactly the same as I'm thinking now   Every night for a year I've slept alone   My cold damp room looks worse than me      I got a fear of death that creeps on every night   I know I won't die soon but then again I might   Just like water down the drain I'm wasting away   And oh, doctors can't help, a ghost of a man, that's me      I'm going far      And oh, water down the drain flows to the sea   The pattern of my life keeps on hauntin' me   Like moisture from the ocean fills the sky   Comes on down to the ground as time goes by      Please don't weep for me when I'm gone      I got a fear of death that creeps on every night   And I know I won't die soon but then again I might      Please don't weep for me when I'm gone      A fear of death that creeps on every night
