yesterday
isn’t half as far away
as the things i long to say
but can’t find the words
when all was lost
i’d forget at any cost
all the nights i turned and tossed
seem so absurd
and not say i haven’t accomplished much
but i wonder where i’d be
if i could have just been free from this all along
and not that i like playing obvious
when i put these things to rhyme
but to write between the lines takes too much time
i was almost gone
i was slipping away
i was laying down
in a shallow grave
but in the nick of time
by some kind of grace
i was finally found
i was finally saved
in the nick of time
