humble pie – what you will lyrics

thinking of the past i feel my life
is slipping by at such a speed
things i knew have gone and those i loved
i look for granted and deceived

call me anything you will
i’ll hide behind a purple pill
and though it seems i’m laughing still
i’m crying

looking from my window i see winter
almost too bare to believe
people change with seasons
and i wonder if it’s my turn to receive

but they avoid the things i ask
or quickly change their style of mask
the faith i had is fading fast
i’m dying

seems to me the only way to be
is like a businessman
and have bad colours round my head
getting drunk to find some peace of mind and consolation
but there’s still the problem of what happens when i’m dead
