One Foot in the Grave

I know a heavy load that drags me down but who doesn't?
So far, out of reach, a perfection never found
Love songs in monotone to a tick, tick, tick, tick, ticking
Are you alive? Are you alive? Are you just sleeping?

In the calm, in the storm, in the radio

So long, Marianne, an intense night of fake sleeping
Never stirring, never found

In the calm, in the storm, in the radio
There's a calm, there's a storm
There's a radio to play

Never worried, never found

In the calm, in the storm, in the radio
There's a calm, there's a storm
There's a radio to play, radio to play
And the radio still plays

With one foot in the grave
