Lovely, is the way Madly, we go someday Someday, someday, someday Some lines are written in sand Just for the sake of time The sake, the sake, the sake Because lively, can't say I Friendly, is where I drop by Friendly, friendly, friendly So much disappeared Seeing double My soul is seeing trouble On the horizon By the water tower near the rafter and the clatter Where bottles would be inches of my life The troubadour sits alone and changes with the seasons not the tide I planted them I tried my best They took over and left me to rest I broke my chords so they could sing No one can remember me anymore Who settled down in a big steady Just as rotten as the bohemians I let them lead as I trailed behind Now I'm not even welcome inside My pockets once full of dreams lay in front of me Counting even the Pennies which aren't visibly true I'm sorry girl, but you weren't right, nor was I Lovely, is the way Madly, we go someday Someday, someday, someday Some lines are written in sand Just for the sake of time The sake, the sake, the sake Because lively, can't say I Friendly, is where I drop by Friendly, friendly, friendly So much disappeared Seeing double And as the lights dim They rock me to the floor My buddies pull me aside ask me to get high I protest in quotations Back to the station, no trouble here Screaming poems of rights but with no soul What's the goal, do you know history? Then we talked of god and his almighty plan "We saw them as a protester of handshakes, A mouse with a cookie, a god in a body We took each piece that we could And I think we should What distorted imagery We felt better on our own afterwards After mortality comes immortality? After morality comes immorality? Will they spin No council to guide us But now we spring at opportunity of newest awaitment We choose who to let us trail Our silent rain of hail Our hard rain of blood Will burn through roofs of wood We tear down what they built Without guns but words and soul Where the naked image of a woman feeds our lust We destroy even the ubermensch And we kick those who dare question us out I hear you Take that damn headdress off We shout: 'Us and them' 'Live fast die young' 'Down with fascism' 'Anarchy in the UK' 'Kill your parents in a whirlwind and drive far away' 'We will force you to agree' 'We will force anarchy'" I get out of bed and drink a cup of water Is this the life I lived past yonder For friends of mine had relations with rats Because they couldn't stand the masses Of which the sign said "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength" Could they be entirely sure it's not Is there a difference between light and dark? Is there a lantern and a cold crusted heart? Will I be good under them? I open my eyes and see only bodies The love boat sails through the ocean and picks up everyone, cutting through land and the tenement halls There are screams but they believe they are right And I want to believe that all this madness has reason And I want to exceed And you want to exceed We all want to exceed Each other's lives Each other's lives Each others lives Each other's lives Living through lies Living through lives Living through lives Living through lies Living through lies Living through lies Living through lies Lies Lies Lies
