The Wrong Side Of Weird
|
|
A sudden unpredictable sky contains the dawn
|
Seconds in an hour counting down before the day is born
|
Long enough in the grave to be sustained
|
Science, or belief, reminders of a time we can't regain
|
|
Have all the idle dreamers awoken from their dreams
|
To find their not alone?
|
Nothing now is really as it seems
|
This would always arrive somehow
|
Problem left unsolved, radiating in the here and now
|
And in my memory
|
Only just begun to understand the reasons why
|
A one in ten degree
|
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
|
|
If all the riches and ransoms coalesced
|
As one were intertwined
|
You would be the brightest I possess
|
If all the gold and the silver came combined
|
You would still define the colours I imagine in my mind
|
And in my memory
|
Under the same moon, lighted on a lunar sea
|
A one in ten degree
|
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
|
|
I can't remember, can't even be him
|
And chances are slim that I'm found
|
No finer substance, no final demand
|
I'm tired and know no bounds
|
|
Thought that I was pulling through
|
Though I never had a chance of winning at all
|
Caught between the heard and the seen
|
Something out of quarantine beginning to call
|
In silence I'm drowning
|
I'm spinning around and round
|
Oblivion lies unrevealed
|
More than flesh and bone can bear together to feel
|
In silence I'm sinking
|
I don't think I'll make it down
|
|
Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout
|
And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned
|
Send out the thing that is driving me crazy
|
I can douse it and leave it to burn
|
|
Daylight dissolving, crawling miasma
|
On a spellbound and desolate prayer
|
Somebody somewhere stop me before
|
I rip away all the soul they've repaired
|
|
Time already grows heavy, gravity won't hold steady
|
Pole people cry for their lives passing by darkly
|
This belongs to you for he would have loved you as I do
|
Life as we feared on the wrong side of weird
|
binds us two
|
|
And in my memory
|
Only just begun to understand the reasons why
|
A one in ten degree
|
Alternate between the faithful and the fearless
|
Where are you now? Who are you now?
|
I can't go there
|
|
Thought that I was pulling through
|
Though I never had a chance of winning at all
|
Caught between the heard and the seen
|
Something out of quarantine beginning to call
|
Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout
|
And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned
|
Send out the thing that is driving me crazy
|
I can douse it and leave it to burn
|
Once every lifetime shadows are lifted
|
And the daylight disperses the dark
|
Want to be sure that all I've endured is put away
|
But where do I start?
