Post 570: Santa Claus Rescue Me (3/31/10)

Santa Claus Rescue Me (12/19/09 c, 3/31/10 w)

I always dreamed about the way it would be

The way my life would go when I hit 30
But I’ve passed that age
I guess I should have nothing but rage and contempt for myself
Someone save me from myself

Santa Claus rescue me
Save me from life’s fading hope
And every dream that has ever died
Santa Claus rescue me
Rescue me from this life

Now here I am on the outside looking in

In on everyone else
Everyone I knew growing up
Has found some success
But all I feel is in duress

Santa Claus rescue me

Save me from life’s fading hope
And every dream that has ever died
Santa Claus rescue me
Rescue me from this life

Now maybe I can still see

Some measure of success
But as it stands now
I look back and all I feel is depressed

I remember the chances I missed
And try to forget ever last kiss
But every memory keeps haunting me
Until it is replaced
But I haven’t found anyone to replace them yet
Santa Claus is there anything that I could get

Santa Claus rescue me
Save me from life’s fading hope
And every dream that has ever died
Santa Claus rescue me
Rescue me from this life
