The strings of broken lyres
The sound of ashes spread of ashes spread
One by one your stars become undone
And seal the path on which you tread

For me to walk beside you

Lyres ebbing their serenade
You thought that you'd lie and wait
For me to whisper softly

Pharisee

From Coffee House To Concert Hall

There used to be, a Pharisee,
Cynical and wise, telling rich ungodly lies,
Of humanity
But in the market place was seated,
A cripple with a lyre

Reverse, rewind
Orpheus plays the lyre
Daydreams of eurydice
Flashback, it starts
It pulls me apart
Can’t look back or it’ll disappear
It’s not
Like

to the sound of the lyre
But soon he tore his way a little further into the gap
In the gap a tap of melancholy hit him
Depravity awaited him as did the brutality

Dans notre Galaxie, il y’a des milliards d’étoiles
Parmi ces étoiles, il y a Véga

Argonaut, music master, he traveled far and wide
Saving lives playing his lyre, he charmed all life alike
Last ride, final destination : the realm

by harps, lyres and flames
In a white room, white walls and I.V.s in your veins
A smile lights your face
All the heroes win after they are slain

There's the wither of the lyre as the elements tire
In worlds unkind

But I look to you and the world is alive
On the long mountainside
Catching the wind

Or elsewhere
A lyre lark spinning soft dreams altogether
Stopping at her spindle
You dozed off on a beach
And wake up paralysed
Your mind lurches upwards

the lyre and the pipe
That's like a harp and a flute
Did God make him?
Yep, he knitted him together in his mother's wawmb
You mean womb?
Whom?

Duh, duh,

to a coconut tree
Open up your heart
And feel the ecstasy
Open up your mouth
And yell oh baby
Stare into the fire
Dancing through this rock
Strum upon your lyre

I sat under trees
Modus operandi
The Change i seek
The chirping of birds
And a lyre at my feet
How the fae sang to me
They say
Opportunity's calling

with kaleidoscope eyes
And she wanted to see the world with nothing to hide
Thunderclouds roll in inside the drift
The lyre man jumped into the pit
With

Neo Impressionists
On a church piano
In the far corner
 Of the carpeted hall.
Lyre is the mouth
Letting into the rafters
A thousand pictures

For Daniel O
Now if you are ready 
When you hear the sound of the horn pipe 
Lyre trigon harp bagpipe and every kind of instrument 
To fall down

a brute!
Orchestrating parades for the liars (Lyres) and the loots (Lutes)
But I want more in my hand than candy
I want more in my head than a fantasy
Oh how

Des Néréides toi, Lydé,
Sur ta lyre enlacée à ton bras accoudé
Chante Diane chasseresse.

the closest to its strains,
Would seem to be a thunder-shattered cloud

Compared to the tuned music of the lyre
That crowns the most beautiful of sapphires
By

cariatides
Les lustres vacillent, le cristal a froid
Les tentures gondolent, l’or des stucs noircit,
les cordes des lyres se relâchent
et dans mon ventre

sous les rutilements du jour,
Plus fortes que l'alcool, plus vastes que nos lyres,
Fermentent les rousseurs amères de l'amour !
