But Why Must I..?

I've got it! I've got it!

It's here within my grasp.

I squeeze too hard; it's gone again

And I can only gasp.



I had it! I had it!

And now it's gone again!

My mind is cold; my heart is stone.

My life once more is grim.



I want it! I need it!

When will I ever learn?

My life's my own but why must I

Choose this way to burn?
