As I greeted you with shaking hands
I couldn’t quite believe; as if I've been deceived
With a tally up over your shroud
Your feet so sorely ground
Your head above the clouds
Now the verbs and vowels are shuttered down
From that life; the clown
Holding a sinner’s crown
And it frightens me, to grieve these deeds
Nor to ever leave just how it came to be
But now the loosening to hold
From your soporific glow
This time has called to dissolve
All deep attraction in my soul
Just as a stone to throw
I'll gravely let you go
And to that blackened sea
Will falsely set you free
[chorus]
On the written words we shared that day
Knowing the cost was weighed
It's just the price we paid
To that wicked dream I tried to cling
And though for naught it'd bring
I'd give you everything
I would give another go to show
But now that ribbon's cut
And every portal shut
Forging on the fool's play wasn't wise
Yet such a kingly prize;
Those eyes I've rhapsodized
But now the truth has been unscrolled
From from the depths of the untold
Setting secrets all afire
In a height so long desired
As a winged-man to the sun
Who thought that his flight had you won
And from his fateful claim
Now ever falls aflame
All out heartache, you're adored;
But such a shock to weep in horror, as
One and two and three and four
My heaven's gate was at hell's door
[chorus]
On the written words we shared that day
Knowing the cost was weighed
It's just the price we paid
To that wicked dream I tried to cling
And though for naught it'd bring
I'd give you everything

My Declaration
04:20
|
|
||
Weathered shame, toss and turn
Icy cold as the fever burns
Never taught, never learned
Stationary overture
Dark as night, darker streets
Ponder all in between the sleet
Favored for your pushing swing
As we mosh around this sad fling
[chorus]
So don't give up, don't let go
Even though this will up and blow
My declaration has been shattered
To the four winds it is now scattered
Forcibly your fables form
Rocking rampant razor's edging scorn
Feel the lock as it's clanking down
Feel the mood's great somber frown
Caution outward, with my inward calls
Morality here all but falls, and
Socializing should be dead
As I fuzz you out of my head
[chorus]
So don't let up, hold it down
Even though I am not around
My declaration is in tatters
Still you're the only thing that matters

HASENFANG Boise, Idaho
I've been writing lyrics since the late 80's and making albums since the early 90's. Now living in Boise, Idaho at the
moment.
NOTE: If I purchased your album for $1, take no offense, I'm broke and I just do that to hopefully increase your site views; cause I like your tunes.
Cheers,
Hasenfang
