Slipping Away

Slipping away, slipping away
I'm here today, gone today

I'm a grain of sand in a tidal wave
A feather in a hurricane
A sugar cube in the pouring rain
I'm not long for this place

Chorus
Slipping away, slipping away
I'm here today, gone today
I'm here today, gone today
I'm here today, gone today

I sign my name in disappearing ink
So no knows that I was even here
And when it's time to disappear
No one will know that I'm gone

Chorus

It's like I'm standing in a crowd
No one can see me at all
It's like I'm standing next to you
You don't see me at all
You act like I'm not even there
Like I'm slipping away

Now, in this house there lives a ghost
Who doesn't rattle chains or wear a sheet
In fact, the ghost looks just like me
I'm the only one who's afraid

Chorus

I'm here today, I'm slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
