Autumn taking in But I know that's not the cause Halting reclusion drags me down This life hesitates to be enjoyed Not the slightest prospect of change Vicious circle That I'd thought to have escaped A lasting state of worry prolongs
Another mirthless year goes by Another hopeless day In another mirthless life
Regarding life's blithenesses Like unattainable jewels in the display Full of yearning Yet aware they can't be mine Grievously sensible That sudden griping feel All activates irrelevant An existence most fatally reduced Conversant becomes that state of mind Forming my personality The longly missed pass of being spared Falls into oblivion
