letra de a song about life - ieuan williams

Loading...

there’s a girl with her feet hanging over a bridge
across the river in my hometown
maybe hoping she’ll finally figure out
what she could be this year
maybe watching the water dancing
beneath the pale hue of the moon
she sits as she waits for her friends
to whisk her away, she hums a weary wishful tune

but for me it suffices to bury my questions
to play this guitar ’til my fingers are sore
and to drown in the darkness, the solace of strangers
the warmth of a whisper, the cold of the night
while i filter the cr-p before it settles within
this maze of memory and we’ll sing through the feedback
to anyone willing to hear; to lend me their ears

but these are the lives that we lead
holding on desperately to our fading dreams
who are frozen in fear in knowing it’s all a fallacy
and like an animal caught in the light
a symbol, a statue in an endless night
we pray it be quick or wish for the morning
the break of the day, to take us away

and maybe this year we can finally break
this cycle of endings; these stories of hate
to see life for what it is: the f-ck-ups, the falls
and get over the summers to live through it all
and though the winters are long
we can always find hope in a song
through the trawl of the days
as we wait for the evenings
in subtle surrender to die by its hand
to be lost in its wandering command

and such is life, just as you know
the ebb and flow of tides
the things that grow, the hum of the city
the clean of the air, and these are the things we need
the aching confessions of blood, of greed
and the sordid suggestions of love in a minor key

and this is life and all the lies between
from birth to death to trading in our dreams
and this is life and everything we know
from breaking down we find ourselves a home

and this is life and all the lies between
the summer stench the slow surrender
and this life and all the lies between
the sirens howl a hollow, hurried, sound
and this is life and all the lies between
