The Song That Plays

from Beneath The Mindless Ocean by Brainwire

/

lyrics

when you were young
and that summer sun
went on and on
inside you shone
those endless days
the games you played
seem so far in the past
yet a song can take you back

never knew
it would go so fast
now the summers
seem overcast
got aches and pains
no breathe to play no games
as time slips away
new memories are made

never thought I would
grow up and fall in love
and feel the hurt
of breaking up
and the song that plays
returns the days
and I taste the air
of a life without care

I've got my hate
and my hip flask
to melt the face of my own past
forgotten ways
of living for today
are drowned in shame
that taints the poetry that we became

felt through faith
or viewed thought glass
this patch of shade
upon the grass
in a funny kind of way
it feels like home
where the young spirits roam
through the endless summer sun
I'll never forget you know
