Paroles de Old violin

Well, i can't recall, one time in my life,
I've felt as lonely as i do tonight.
I feel like i could lay down, and get up no more,
It's the damndest feelin'; i never felt it before.

Tonight i feel like an old violin,
Soon to be put away and never played again.
Don't ask me why i feel like this, hell, i can't say.
I only wish this feelin' would just go away.

I guess it's 'cos the truth,
Is the hardest thing i ever faced.
'cos you can't change the truth,
In the slightest way. i tried.

So i asked myself,
I said: 'john, where do you go from here?'
Then like a damned fool,
I turned around and looked in the mirror.

And there i saw, an old violin.
Soon to be put away and never played again.

So one more time, just to be sure,
I said: 'john, where in the hell do you go from here?'
You know there wasn't a nickel's worth of difference,
When i looked in the mirror, that's when i knew.

That there i was seein', an old violin.
Soon to be put away, and never played again.

And just like that, it hit me,
That old violin and i were just alike.
We'd give our all to music,
And soon, we'd give our life.
