lyrics

Right after the block a flood of words
Were thrown up but nothing stuck up
Worth remembering, you were pretty obsessed
With finding the path that took you here.
Back to the south where you belong
Away from the crows, the lepers unbound
You asked for the nature of my complaint
When I gave you none
You sent me to –night- (hell).

Tonight we could reach for the stars
But tonight could tear us apart
I smile when I hear your cry
“Don’t leave me here…”
Does it get better than this?
Without risk, there will be no reward
Your moaning just makes me sad
Glad that you are here and… now

Right after the flood a block of words
Stuck at my mouth, shattered my spine,
My fragmented mind, your lack of regrets.
Won’t suffer fools gladly. Not even myself
The curtains, the ceilings, the sofa, the bed
Were covered by innards, the fruit and the waste
At the vanity fair all my couplets
The harder I tried the darker it gets

Tonight we could reach for the stars
But tonight could tear us apart
I smile when I hear your cry
“Don’t leave me here…”
Does it get better than this?
Without risk, there will be no reward
Your moaning just makes me sad
Glad that you are here and… now
