They don't kill you in the normal sense of the word. Rather they feed off the life that might've been. My song, Blink is a parable about missing out on the best things in life.

They make me feel sad Take me back to the past, And all the happiness I had. But when I met you, I could not close my eyes I couldn't even blink, Lest you disappeared into time. Asked you out for a drink. While the rain fell down. I tried not to think. That you might turn me down. You're like an angel as old as the universe You saved me from a lonely life that is so much worse. Don't blink. Don't look away. Life is too short. I won't blink. I won't turn my back. Let go of the hurt. I won't blink. Things don't always happen. Like we dream and plan. It's confusing at times. That's why I take your hand. To grow old with you for as long as time goes by. You showed me this moment and you opened up my eyes 22:06 - Marc Gunn "Blink" from Selcouth 25:40 - CHORD STRUCTURE 28:23 - CREDITS Thanks for listening to Pub Songs & Stories.
