How We Blew It
Dérive

What were you thinking about on your cold walk home?

When the October breeze left you freezing and alone.

All those burning houses should’ve warmed your bones.

Did anything you felt get through that heart of stone?


As the leaves crunched underfoot I guess I felt

Like the dying thoughts of a wishing well

Like everything I wanted sank to the ground

And was lost in the wake of its own dying sound


I fell into a wonder

I fell into a daze

Like a living shadow

Like an out of order play


I let these gardens overgrow


Watched the fountains overflow

Saw everyone head back home

Plugged in and all turned to stone


Endlessly sing. Ceaselessly stray.

Like a single feather till the end of my days.

Swept up by the wind ‘neath a clearer sky

Landed in a meadow in the blink of an eye


Well we sang in love like high flying doves

And failed to see the black clouds swirling up above

The rain poured in sheets, the wind knocked us in gusts

And left there nothing but some feathers in the mud.

Lyrics by Dérive

  And Bow Your Tired Head Down   Confessions of a Data Miner   Disconnected Catacombs   Exeunt   Follow Me To The Promenade   Found It In The Bright White Starlight   Fukushima Waves   Invisible Fingers   Last Night At The Social   Lost It In The Blackened Morning   On The Edge of Fertile Territory   Phantom Party   Sing It To The Ground   Sing It To The River   Spots On The Analog Sunset   There Lies Some Hope In Them There Hollows   Two Movements   What’s Next
