A Passing Feeling

Everything is gone but the echo of the burst of a shell And I'm stuck waiting for a passing feeling In the city I built up and blew to hell I'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling Still I send all the time My request for relief Down the dead power lines Though I'm beyond belief In the help I require Just to exist at all Took a long time to stand Just an hour to fall. I'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling Stuck here waiting for the passing feeling Still I send all the time My request for relief Down the dead power lines Though I'm beyond belief In the help I require Just to exist at all Took a long time to stand Just an hour to fall --- A Passing Feeling - Elliott Smith
