Sometimes its hard to make those noises disappear Inside my head, behind my eyes, between my ears You try to tell me its delusion and plain fear I close my eyes and just pretend I didnt hear And I try Yes I try And I try so hard Time goes by Yes it flies when you try to catch a star I hate it when Im sober and I love it when Im drunk Everything is deadly, you get cancer in the sun I hear his voice and it is cigarettes and tears He is the thin, white duke singing about golden years And I try Yes I try And I try so hard Time goes by Yes it flies when you try to catch a star
