Ideas That Died That Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'd like to be under a warm gentle sea
just somewhere I can talk about it
for the people who don't care to shake it
the sum of true grief that runs from you to me
takes a simple laughter warm to melt it
sit right down you've yet to taste it
I'd like to be bull of unbelievable speech
saying truth that no one doubts it
for the people never taught to believe it
never pleasing love comes easy
loving all the time
rushing and pushing are part of the ugly
curtain we must hide (and fade to black)
Hide away the shame
never deny the blame
take a river with rapids lame
ride to safety it's fake but a game
a game to play
I wish for me to capture more than I could be
it's not too late to grow and change that
these very songs and let downs made portrait
stimulate the disease, kiss the flowers and make them sneeze
gently bend down scrub all her petals
mop the blood up knees on those nettles
like a child this cage is in need, it's barely ten yet body says three
it's off to bed then ten hours later
I'll wake to find the day hardly better
it's not so bad to wake and find that
dreams were just a play
something tells me in this new age
I might lose this stage and fade to black
never comes the day
players out of play
it's never your fault they hate
ideas that died that day
