Yes dear, you're utterly correct, everything I do ends up absolutely wrecked,
yes dear, you knew it all along, just as well I know you'll never listen to this song.

Yes dear, you're altogether right, but I don't have the energy to argue or to fight,
yes dear, I'm no longer young, if I disappeared right now, it would be best for everyone.

Yes dear, I'm losing it again, burning up inside, tears of acid rain.

Yes dear, I know you know just how I feel, the sickness runs too deep, this wound will never heal,
yes dear, my sell-by-date has past, well the good things in life, they never really last.

Yes dear, she's just a helpless child, but now I would change anything, only to see her smile.

Yes dear, magnanimous in defeat, but there's one more appointment I really have to keep,
yes dear, my work here is done, I'll softly slip away behind the setting sun.

Yes dear...
