it's a sickness with me, don't you see

theyll close the door and lock it and open in 30 days
i better bring my pencil, i'll be going at it in spades
dont give up now, the writings on the wall
dont make me leave till i copy it all
how can this be proper in such a space as this
i thought this was punishment, to see what i would miss
but i cant stop this car from crashing, im coming down the road
these thoughts in my head, ive got to empty this load
