Days Of Why And Neurosis
(The Adjective/Adverb Song)
by John Michael Ray

Simply put, does the end
Justify your means
Or was this merely just a ruse
To cover up your schemes
Doled out truth so meagerly
Facts became so frail
Weakly bent and slightly battered
From your lies of hail

Gone are the days
Of why and neurosis
Gone are the days
Your paranoid psychosis
Gone are the days
As another door closes
Gone are the days
Gone are the days

Forcefully, I had no choice
Laid upon my feet
Your exit had been roughly paved
Your plan was so complete
I strongly wished for your demise
Bad days from now until
Karma you have harshly earned
Shatters spirit, shatters will

Regretfully, there were more
Than two of us involved
Walking out so shamelessly
As if the problem solved
No waxing apologetically
For you fleeing of the scene
She was barely 12, you're a sorry excuse
For a human being

Gone are the days
Of why and neurosis
Gone are the days
Your paranoid psychosis
Gone are the days
As another door closes
Gone are the days
Gone are the days

Lovingly, they all appeared
To catch me when I fell
Gently took me by the hand
Led me from that hell
Others came on passionately
In hopes of something more
Tender, touching, softly guiding
Salvation swam ashore

Slowly, time has healed the wounds
And not left many scars
Still, how quickly I recall
What was written in the stars
For you to judge so hastily
Conclusions off the mark
If moderation was your key
It wouldn't have been dark

Gone are the days
Of why and neurosis
Gone are the days
Your paranoid psychosis
Gone are the days
As another door closes
Gone are the days
Gone are the days
