[Swans - How They Suffer lyrics]
It's not as much a deterioration fact
It's the disease I have which er, uh
The- the right eye is blind as you know
And that was done, er, unfortunately
As-as a result of a detached retina
And the retina they could
Never splice together
They tried to seal it together and couldn't
And told me I'd lose my
Eyesight at that y'know
O-o-o- short or long term I would lose it
And unfortunately er the retinal- uh
A retinal det-detachment started in
My left eye
My good eye, which I still have today
And it was the result of glaucoma
And a retinal not detachment
But a retinal er, er
I don't know what the hell they call it
But uh, today, uh
I am what they call legally
Because of this retinal problem
And er glaucoma, er
II'm what they call erm legally blind
Today I do not have a fever
I feel about the same as I did yesterday
I I'm trying to eat a little better
So I can get stronger (You exercising?)
I'm exercising by just walking around the
Around the house
Went out in the yard just Wednesday
(You have a headache?)
No, I don't think I have a headache
(A little dizzy, today?)
Maybe slightly dizzy
(You feel weaker? Or stronger
Than you did yesterday?)
Just o- just overnight
I don't seem to be much different over one
Over one night yesterday to today
Takes a little bit longer than that
(Any aches and pains anywhere? Or
On when you fell?
Or when you fell on your heater
Having your exercise?)
Well, that's the, that's sore
About where I fell on the heater (Where?)
Here, well I guess here (Where is that?)
I dunno what you call that
(Does it hurt when you breathe?)
It hurts a little bit when I
Breathe in a little deeply
(D'you sleep at all?)
Well if you're asleep you can't
Tell whether you're asleep
It's the disease I have which er, uh
The- the right eye is blind as you know
And that was done, er, unfortunately
As-as a result of a detached retina
And the retina they could
Never splice together
They tried to seal it together and couldn't
And told me I'd lose my
Eyesight at that y'know
O-o-o- short or long term I would lose it
And unfortunately er the retinal- uh

And it was the result of glaucoma
And a retinal not detachment
But a retinal er, er
