Oil on canvas
|
Couplets and stanzas to divine who you are
|
Pencil portrayals and jealous betrayals
|
Get you further afar
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Oh, false faces and meaningless chases I travel alone
|
Oh, first places and calendar races I need a home
|
|
Hostile hotel walls, footfalls and phone calls
|
And you're on the line
|
Gentle coercions and bitter desertions
|
When the truth is a lie
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Lover twice yearly
|
That last battle nearly cost me the fight
|
Broke through the ice and got cut down to size
|
And escaped through the night
|
|
[Chorus]
|
