Cold damp room looks worse than me, no no no
I never found out the reason why
Water down the drain goes to the sea
At the tender age of four
Every night for a year I've slept alone
I know I won't die soon, but then again I might
Doctors can't help the ghost of a man that's me
Or from my hometown I was torn
Water down the drain, I'm wasting away
Come on down to the ground as the time goes by
My parents had to lie
Got a fear of death that creeps on every night
Moisture from the ocean fills the sky
About the place that I was born
The pattern of my life keeps a-haunting me
