Beauty was his mask until time ripped it from his face / With a combination of regrets and cigarettes wet, and reddened with wine All he wants is the ending to his crippled fairytale / The girl she was a mess and a riddle and smelt of lavender and lies Running on empty faith and dreams eventually burns out / She spoke in double negatives before collapsing down the hall So all he asked to ease the pain was:”How long does youth last?” / And whispered:”It’s the worst of all feelings when you don’t feel nothing at all.”
I wish for a million wishes said the smart-ass kid on the hill And try to make her laugh ’cause if I don’t, I’m scared nobody will. Look: the painting of a painting, of an easel by the sea. Let’s laugh and listen to music the tall grass folded underneath.
And look at the bottom of the ocean with our four eyes open wide. / If we are just a grain in time’s eternal hourglass, what then? And try our best to give ourselves a purpose when we know there isn’t one. / To climb up to the top and fall the bottom all again. She will break the cycle, doesn’t need a reason to believe. / I’ve lived this all before and I’ll live this all over and over
Time runs in a circle, time runs in a circle not a line
Innocence is but a veil for demons underneath / With a misconception of the view of space and the place of the divine Oh but nothing’s lost forever if everything repeats / The boy was running late did he forget that everything straight is a lie “So this must all have a meaning.” he thought, closing his eyes / There’s a reason for the seasons and the motions of the things I cannot see All he prayed was that tomorrow he wouldn’t tell one lie / And hell and paradise are pale compared to always having to be me
