new beginnings and a life unknown such mysteries surround me.

From eleven years of a lonely road to marriage in a month, from brothers in arms to strangers on the grass which way does the wind blow?
I started this walk when I was really young, confused and dressed in the fool’s attire.

Playing this crowd with stale jokes and stand up folly, I’ve see those smirks turn to dull gold and paste it notes, so much yellow covering up my soul with reminders.

Do you remember that time I danced for the lot, I put on my best shoes hoping to dazzle you with two left feet, just to watch me fall over time your love not strong enough to hold.
Running threw the fields plucking scarlet to feel the thorns in my hands, the flow threw my heart, what dance do you want to do today as the new tomorrow comes?

I just want to hide those skeletons locked in old cases those bones unable to choke me,
Those tears unable to wash away the dirt, from too many starving dinners, and cigarette candles. To follow this path that was given to me and not the past that follows.

Where is the joy I should feel for tomorrow why so much fear for the reigns of humanity, all lost in the net all alone caught on the wheel.
Lady love will you follow me on this walk, or are you also hiding a grin? Do you want to care how I feel, how I can sour with so much on your mind.
Take this fright of the mourning take it with the wheel I can not reflect on tomorrow when this flesh I live begins to peel.

This life I have lived has many leaves, affecting others like a wind on a sail,
new beginnings and a life unknown such mysteries surround me.

From eleven years of a lonely road to marriage in a month, from brothers in arms to strangers on the grass which way does the wind blow?
I started this walk when I was really young, confused and dressed in the fool’s attire.

Playing this crowd with stale jokes and stand up folly, I’ve see those smirks turn to dull gold and paste it notes, so much yellow covering up my soul with reminders.

Do you remember that time I danced for the lot, I put on my best shoes hoping to dazzle you with two left feet, just to watch me fall over time your love not strong enough to hold.
Running threw the fields plucking scarlet to feel the thorns in my hands, the flow threw my heart, what dance do you want to do today as the new tomorrow comes?

I just want to hide those skeletons locked in old cases those bones unable to choke me,
Those tears unable to wash away the dirt, from too many starving dinners, and cigarette candles. To follow this path that was given to me and not the past that follows.

Where is the joy I should feel for tomorrow why so much fear for the reigns of humanity, all lost in the net all alone caught on the wheel.
Lady love will you follow me on this walk, or are you also hiding a grin? Do you want to care how I feel, how I can sour with so much on your mind.
Take this fright of the mourning take it with the wheel I can not reflect on tomorrow when this flesh I live begins to peel.
