lyrics

This evening as the bats fly by
My head, I pry the moon from sky
As I have done before
I need all of the extra light
To illuminate a fright
That might ignite a war
I want only to see, not touch,
The craters, I don’t ask for much
Nonesuch won’t ask for more

Except to send the answers back that nobody requires
I crave, I rove,
I gave my trove
To put out all the fires

All of these poets that you chose
To document your life in prose
Suppose they do it well
But then who will preserve your odyssey
When time erodes your modesty
Your honesty unwell
I’ll go and live inside a rhyme
Written far behind our sweet time
So I’m deaf to your spell

For all the rivals envy spites it secretly admires
I crave, I rove,
I gave my trove
To stoke all of the fires

The cause behind every relapse
That tempts us to collapse,
Perhaps is best not known
But a flash upon the reasons, then,
For replicating failure when,
Again, it is not shown
Yet have you but one thought on this:
A tonic for our bonds amiss;
Dismiss the first stone thrown

And all that we could ever want or have or know or be
I crave, I rove
I gave my trove
For just one chance to see!
