Suicide is Painless

Suicide is Painless

By Mike Altman and Johnny Mandel, 1970

Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see

That Suicide is Painless
It brings on many Changes
And I can take it or leave it if I please

I try to find a way to make
All our little joys relate
Without that ever-present hate
But now I know that it's to late

And Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take it or leave it if I please

The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
This losing card I'll someday lay
So this is all I have to say

Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take it or leave it if I please

The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
And to another give my seat
For that's the only painless feat

Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take it or leave it if I please

The Sword of Time will pierce our skins
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The Pain grows stronger: Watch It grin

Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take it or leave it if I please

A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
Is it to be or not to be?
And I replied Oh, why ask me?

Suicide Is Painless
It brings on many Changes
And I can take It or leave It if I please

And you can do the same Thing if you please
