If All Else Fails

The Institution Lyrics



That unheard call Those narrow walls

Walked a man who knew his fate yet would not show it on

his face

Stiff upper lip His final trip Would not give

til' unconsciously his past of fun had sold his life away

I will show you what you need to live

Though you're not here I am strong People live their

lives so carefree

Never knowing til' it's gone

...All of you

That acute smell

He knew it well

The reek of an institution filled with sterile

personalities

I walked right in Unknowing grin

Not returned for the simple fact in the future he would

not be able to see me

I...won't let him die, in me he'll be alive

I...can't see this through, how much of this can ever be

true

I...won't live this way, here I'll stay

I...can hardly see, without him, for him I'll strive to

be
