One hundred years
One hundred coins
One hundred tears
One hundred kisses
From the dead
Gone crazy
dead gone wild
Living in your backyard
One hundred excuses
One hundred worms
One hundred conditions
One hundred concerns
From the rot
Comes shady
Rot comes life
Up pushes daisies to sky
You think you have the answer
But it’s 99 times wrong
When the one’s that you start with
Wasn’t ready meant to be the one.
