From the recording Sinister Swing (Remastered)
Lyrics
Thought about leaving here
But I realize there's still so much to do
Thought about checking out
But I understand that I own this room
& every other story ends
With casualties & casual sympathy
I've got to stay afloat and smile
But where am I & what is there for me
I'm fading
Just like a man
Thought about leaving here
But I realize that we are something new
Angel keep your hand in mine
It's closing time - the lights will be on soon
I'm fading
Just like a man
