Lyrics
The Mayfly
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.
Everything's complete.
The newly wed syndrome.
The mayfly hit the street.
Everybody in plus.
Burnt out as can be.
Watching you go home.
It's crystal clear to me.
You no longer need us.
It's OK, we'll come around.
Now, there's nothing left for us.
We're packing up, saying goodbye.
To a place no one can trust.
To a scene based on a lie.
I truly hope we won't retreat.
The same mistake we won't repeat.
The bond was stabile as a shed.
Love is mutal, love is dead.
Everything went great.
With lot's of beginners luck.
The mayfly on a skate.
Timing in perfection.
Bored out as can be.
Monkey's getting stuck.
The four of us agreed.
We need to follow the action.
Where ever that might be...
Now, there's nothing left for us.
We're packing up, saying goodbye.
To a place no one can trust.
To a scene based on a lie.
I truly hope we won't retreat.
The same mistake we won't repeat.
The bond was stabile as a shed.
Love is mutal, love is dead.
Here I go.
I'm tired about what all you say.
Just one show, you owe it to the kids, so play!
That's all bull.
The main thing's that we're having fun!
Said and done, said and done.
I don't owe a shit to anyone.
Now, there's nothing left for us.
We're packing up, saying goodbye.
To a place no one can trust.
To a scene based on a lie
On a lie
I truly hope we won't retreat
To a scene based on a lie
On a lie
The same mistake we won't repeat
