Elliott Smith

A Living Will Lyrics

Time to kill, wrote a living will

And gave it to the man in the moon

But I'm gonna get well soon

This happy face is watching me die

Elevate me to another world

All that I can do on my own

Is leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone

Circumstance dropped by uninvited

And demanded to be fed

But I've already gone to bed

There's nothing you can see from (insight/inside)

My spirit arose and put on my clothes

And helped me (to disconnect/disconnecting)the phone

To leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone

Time was always a wild (/wired) animal in a cage

First it's all the reaction, now it's all the rage

Waking up at a stations' stop

And reality's invading my brain

The cops gonna search the train they'll take

Away whatever they find

But I don't have the thoughts you want, just a

Memory of love I was shown-

A vision that turns to stone

Leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone

Leave well enough alone
