Lilac and Sweet Clover

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

You can't catch the summer

And hold it to ransom

You can only run after it

As it dances away

In a cloud of

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

And I think we were friends

If I recall those days

When the lights were dancing

Way over our heads

Tears teach us to be human

Laughter sweeter than wine

Years run like water

It's all just a matter of time

You can't catch the summer

And hold it to ransom

You can only run after it

As it dances away

In a cloud of

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

Lilac and sweet clover

And damson red

Fireflies dancing

Way over your head

Last Chance Human

Starting a new set of songs/poems/words. Kicking off with Last Chance Human.

Last Chance Human

I've stood back

Didn't want to drown in your wake

Watched as your ships set sail

Counted in the flotsam and jetsam

On the return tide

When you won't listen any more

When the ego trip is all

Those bridges that you burnt

No lessons learnt

I've had it up to here

And there's something very clear

No matter how much you polish it

It's all still a crock of shit

So sick and tired of it

Well, here comes St Jude

Like the Ides of March

Here comes your future

A reflection of your past

Last chance human

Last chance human

I've stood back

Didn't want to drown in your wake

Watched as your ships set sail

Counted in the flotsam and jetsam

On the return tide

When a bullet is your reason

When war's the only season

When you won't listen any more

When the ego trip is all

Well, here comes St Jude

Like the Ides of March

Here comes your future

A reflection of your past

So very sick and tired of it

This is your last chance to be human
