Horace

Quintus Horatius Flaccus (Classical Latin: [ˈkᶣiːn̪t̪ʊs̠ (h)ɔˈraːt̪iʊs̠ ˈfɫ̪akːʊs̠]; 8 December 65 – 27 November 8 BC), known in the English-speaking world as Horace (), was the leading Roman lyric poet during the time of Augustus (also known as Octavian). The rhetorician Quintilian regarded his Odes as just about the only Latin lyrics worth reading: "He can be lofty sometimes, yet he is also full of charm and grace, versatile in his figures, and felicitously daring in his choice of words."Horace also crafted elegant hexameter verses (Satires and Epistles) and caustic iambic poetry (Epodes).

Late June's late bloomer's arrived
Been stuck inside the mirror a whole life
Leave through the back way, I don't want to see those silver tears no more
Are you cool, are you drowning inside, are you broken
Will this time of night console the eyes
If I can't see you there I can't see at all

Cause I'll pick you up like lungs to air
When you're down on your luck, you know I'll be there
When you're wayward in the blue

The devil's at your window with a fork and a mic
He whispers to your ego a lullaby
Will you wait a lonely life tongue tied
Come on baby show me that carnal side
The full moon's out and I howl like a dog
Man, I'm so awake
It's time I go a way for good
If I can't see you there I can't see at all

Cause I'll pick you up like lungs to air
When you're down on your luck I know life's unfair
When you're wayward in the blue

Sink into the loving tide and it's silent way
That moment you broke your heart something got filed away
Like freedom from a warring mind
Have you seen the wayward boy? He's wandered off again

Cause I'll pick you up like lungs to air
When you're down on your luck, you know I'll be there
When you're wayward in the blue
Cause I'll pick you up like lungs to air
When you're down on your luck I know life's unfair
When you're wayward in the blue
