My Daisy

i have the record playing And I'm covering my ears Trying to shut out the thoughts inside my head

they just whirl and whirl around like the water in a toilet bowl drowning out the world I can't hear the music And I can't remember why I put it on

Why must there be happiness When my world just died? My Daisy, my Daisy, is gone For good.
