LET IT DIE lyrics
by Charles Bukowski
I'm not interested in solving
The ills of society
I don't want to save the world
I don't even want to save me
I think most talk is so boring
I mean
"Save this
Do that
Do this"
I think
We're all so boring saying everything
We don't even want to save ourselves
We're so boring
Talking about it
There's nothing left to say
We're so f*cking boring
Let it die I say
Let there be a new beginning
Let there be a nеw beginning
I don't want to save the world
Lеt it die I say
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
Let it die I say
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
I would like to be alone more
Than I am
Like the phone rings too often
There's too many cameras and all that
And I've kind of accepted
But it's not me
When these things are gone
I go back to the room
And I become myself again
Often times I pull down all the shades
Like I used to
Just lay down in the room
For 5 to 6 hours
Just lay on that bed
And then get something back
Some kind of juice
Just being away from people
Some of the most marvellous fulfillments
A man like me can have
It's the absence of humanity
A fulfilment
So graceful
That even god would understand
If he invented them
I don't want to save the world
Let it die I say
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
Let it die I say
I don't want to save the world
I don't want to save the world
It's awful
Good night
