lyrics

With Cupid’s dart
You’re with someone new.
The doubtless love songs
You now eschew.
The pariah of pointless prose
Is led around now by the nose.

But how dreams wilt and summer ends
Somehow so cyclical fads and trends.
The passing streetlights make rapid lines
The rhythms cascade into the night.

I could be the wishes of your day
If I could be the breeze that kept the rain at bay.
And if I could be the sound that’s in your head.
Instead of just a text with many chapters left on read.

(I hope that he breathes new life
Into your world)

Steering away
from the bottle’s grasp
Welcome the madness
That’s built to last.
The pariah of frozen prose
Can now see farther than his Roman nose

Now the dreams are just fallen fruit
Replanting ideas and making roots.
Orchards of ideas overgrown.
Some paths chosen are best walked alone.

I could be the diamond in the rough
If I could be the person that you can’t love enough.
If I could be more than meagre melodies
I’d build a home much grander than the other honey bees.

(I hope that he breathes new life
Into your world)
