Nonsense Tune

The night is hazy, golden, moisture drown in ecstasy The day was melted, bright, and boiling yet divine While subtle tears mix with the sweat soaked rags of fantasy The ticking clocks can't find the patience to unwind I wrote a love song before the sun came up and tortured it I wrote a ballad about a gunfight at high noon I watched the dreams of wandering wise men tumble down the pit I watched the perfect love appear, then leave too soon It's an ancient melody, it's a playwright's tragedy It's a werewolf's thesis uncorrupted by the moon The sun sinks low, the sky aglow The hourglass empty now Yet still I'm sitting here singing this song to a nonsense tune I watched the war in Southeast Asia on a TV set Split old from young, and white from black, and hawk from dove Saw the same wasted generation launch the internet So easy to forget, that all they need is love It's an ancient melody, it's a playwright's tragedy It's a werewolf's thesis uncorrupted by the moon The sun sinks low, the sky aglow The hourglass empty now Yet still I'm sitting here singing this song to a nonsense tune The Berlin wall came tumbling down and promised better days The united SSR unraveled fast And then a quarter century later set our votes ablaze Hijacked democracy, stole our election, and kicked our ass It's an ancient melody, it's a playwright's tragedy It's a werewolf's thesis uncorrupted by the moon The sun sinks low, the sky aglow The hourglass empty now Yet still I'm sitting here singing this song to a nonsense tune The night is hazy, golden moisture drown in ecstasy Cicadas sing and dance while sunset starts to sigh I tried to live and love and be the man I want to be I watched the dreams of wandering wise men fade and die It's an ancient melody, it's a playwright's tragedy It's a werewolf's thesis un-corrupted by the moon The sun sinks low, the sky aglow The hourglass empty now Yet still I'm sitting here singing this song to a nonsense tune Yeah I'm just sitting here singing this song to a nonsense tune And I'm still sitting here making up songs to a nonsense tune
