Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realise and I can seeThat suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I pleaseThat game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card i'll some day lay [jdb sings: "the losing card of some delay"]
So this is all I have to sayThat suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
I can take or leave it if I pleaseThe sword of time will pierce our skin
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger, watch it burnThat suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I pleaseA brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
Is it to be or not to be
And I replied oh why ask meThat suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I...

That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I pleaseThat suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And you can do the same thing if you please
