|
The background buzz, the lo-fi hum, |
|
The fallen saviors beat their ritual drums. |
|
Their eyes alive with destiny - |
|
Sweet delusions, which serve to set us free. |
|
The bar room bids for tarts with hearts, |
|
The dumbed down kids in souped up cars. |
|
The clapped out lovers on their guard - |
|
Smaller details written large. |
|
Her sun-kissed skin caught in your frame, |
|
You know you'll never pass this way again. |
|
You wash the dirt out of your hair. |
|
You find the words you need when no-one's there. |
|
The moments lost. |
|
The distant stars. |
