Uuh took a look to see

The rusted latches on my guitar case

No the end is not near

And so resolved to put things in their place



No the end is not near

The end is not nearly what you think

No the end is not near

The end is not nearly were you think it is



Uuh listening for the words

To wind from my head down to my straggly sleeve

Oh now it seems so long

Living in a web I never meant to weave



No the end is not near

The end is not nearly what you think

No the end is not near

The end is not nearly were you think it is



Sad like people sometimes get

I looked down at these scratched old boots that could not leave

No I haven't made it yet

But if I do then you will know please

pray for me



No the end is not near

The end is not nearly what you think

No the end is not near

The end is not nearly were you think it is
