Somewhere Along My Line

in response to Somewhere Along The Line
as Billy sings I know's the truth
and for knowledge of it catching up on me
I live it waiting sure I'll never rue

with a verse of Virginia cigarettes
and cancer it's enjoyment's toll
and words of a lover with now so satisfied
but for lust's conquests a damaged soul

I relate and my conscience somewhat berates
but still I live in hope the cure's
such gratification and will death assuage
that I didn't live indulged in pleasures fewer
