What holds the fish unto the rod? The loose tooth to the doorknob The paper kite that glides above My Heart strings are stretched taught By a lover's thread I weaved the maze Like a Theseian ship my heart replaced Now caught and snagged in the web I made By my heart strings I'm betrayed Tomorrow's another day Let in the light cast ghosts away An ode for the haunted From the cruel dawn extorted Tomorrow's another day Arise sun yet again Taken for-granted Am I disenchanted? Seems all the worlds' sealed in its cell These tiered days paint a miser's hell Lacking a dead ringers bell The Pontiff spoke and the heart strings broke Oh was it fear that the dream could end? The commute too silent from birth to death? Labyrinth deepens with each new step Snagged on the horn that frayed Ariadne's thread Tomorrow's another day Each new dawn a step away From our departed From the souls that we start with Tomorrow's another day Mañana a prayer you use to say An ode for heart strings A Curlew among fog sings But all and sundry, my jury come judge me My conviction plainly written but you haven't time to hear My passions are unsullied by the apathetic laity Go to your deity, take your wisdoms elsewhere For shrouded in yearning of the compass's true bearing The heart lines I have followed, have seen all hands but me drowned Was it west or was it east was it the rising tide or the ebbing beast? Becalmed and bestilled on the wide Sargasso Sea A prayer said for those in peril upon the sea A vagrant albatross there's a shard of bad omen about me The heart lines bitter end now just lagan beneath the deep blue sea
