A Living Will

Elliott Smith

4

time to kill wrote a living will and gave it to the man in the moon

but i'm gonna get well soon this happy face is watching me die

elevate me to another world all that i can do on my own

is leave well enough alone

leave well enough alone

leave well enough alone

a circumstance dropped by uninvited and demand to be fed

but i've already gone to bed there's nothing you can see from inside

my spirit arose and put on my clothes and helped me disconnecting the phone

to leave well enough alone

leave well enough alone

leave well enough alone

time was i was a wire then a mole in a cake

first its all the reaction, now its all the rage

waking up by the stations' stop and reality's invading my brain

the cops gonna search the train they'll take away whatever they find

but i don't have the thoughts you want,just a memory of love I was shown

a vision that turns to stone

leave well enough alone

leave well enough alone
