lyrics

Two Bee's Decided (c) J.Davey

I thought I heard an angel fall, while listening to a sirens call,
Pairs of quavers on the stave, resting for a semi-breve.
Ghostly voices in the night, raise my hairs as if in fright,
Waiting for the morning light, calculating wrong from right.
Haunted image, locked in ice, Turns my stomach, not so nice,
measured reply, needs a rate, Quantified in bits of hate.
Grav-i-ty is on our side, while we walk a metered stride,
Structured paces make amends, while we think (imagined friends).


Seeking Future in the past, making favorites ever last,
Searching for the perfect rhyme, fitting it to perfect time.
Staring blankly into space, symetry, and fair of face,
Discount brokers need a fix, shooting up with pixie stix.
Fairy Tales and bold face lies, funerals and sad goodbyes,
Scribbling on an untouched slate, searching for a common rate,
Sets of numbers incomplete, waiting for me at my seat,
Pencil sharp, thoughts are deep, gonna make this (final leap),

Long shot goals and long lost dreams, flicker on a tv screen,
Childhood friends and enemies, hiding in the forest trees,
Hunger strikes upon the hour, secret sandwich to devour,
Roundup colleques we call friend, pleasantries we all pretend,
Sudden chill runs up my spine, flashback to an ancient crime,
Perpetrators in a race, run away at quickened pace,
I'm still young the summers long, soothing with familiar song,
Soon to start the final slumber, felling trees and (cutting lumber).

Try to make a better friend, fix up errors, make amends,
try to hard, you can't pretend, helping hands we try to lend,
Not to soon, we are not late, packing up a fragile crate,
bubble wrap and styrofoam, paying off a student loan,
Filling memories by the hour, seeking out a higher power,
losing neurons by the glass, gaining weight and losing mass,
Try to balance, try to screen, making use of plastercene,
childhoods gone, forever lost, no account will bear (the cost)
