Lyrics:

Something is dying tonight
There will be no more breath and no more light
I've burned every candle and extinguished every fear
And I've waited for your time to pass to bring in my new year
Something is dying tonight
There will be no more struggle, no more fight
And I've known that I'd have to live through suffering and you
But I'm the landlord of my dreams now and my tenant's rent is due
Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying tonight
My old patterns off to Saturn taking flight
And the astronaut within me has no air supply at all
So he's plunging into the deep sea with no parachute to fall
Something is dying tonight
I can't eat and I can't sleep so I just write
Cause I wanted you to lean on, to distract me from my feet
But my karma wheelchair rolled me out of bounds and out of reach
Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me

Author of wind and change, 'Phantom of the Opera'
Tenor of the octave range spews volcanic lava
Silent partner of the sun divests the world of interest
Sun retires, calls it a day, and sleeps a hundred winters
Darkness echoes thunder cries and waves ripple with laughter
Dolphins confuse sea and sky and now the hereafter
Monkeys climb to tops of trees and call out to the children
Little girl awakes from dream as Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Down pour from the darkest cloud accumulated tension
Flashflood from the third leaks into the fourth dimension
Shotgun rings across a plain, down goes another lion
Harlem church sings refrain, we're marching on to Zion
