letra de the village by the sea - plastic poetry

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh time is flying away
hourgl-ss emptying everyday
i know a place where the sand
freely flows between my hands

lost for words from time to time
desperately in search of rhymes
head-scratching is bound to cease
hair stroked by the gentle breeze

just an image or the truth
well there’s no sign of any proof
follow me oh please be blind
there’ll be lots to see you’ll find

[chorus]
little village by the sea
where seagulls occasionnally
screech in tune, form a choir
voicing out their psalms and prayers
their cathedral is the beach
opening their beaks to preach
right above the deep blue nave
of gritty rocks and waves

[verse 2]
civil war has just begun
but there’s no battle to be won
in this place i know so well
a no-man’s-land of rocks and sh-lls

those around you lose their heads
their insanity is fed
by the networks by their phones
oh come with me you’ll be alone

paradise is just a myth
religion too, but there’s an if
’cause though i find i might agree
there’s no better place to be

[chorus]
than the village by the sea
oh such a perfect ent-ty
from the ocean to the land
and from anywhere you stand
b-tterflies and trees and flowers
living in their finest hours
breathing ever so gently
an air of harmony

[bridge]
but now i must confess
i finally couldn’t cope
for there is no success
in blindfolds and in hope!

[verse 3]
oh time isn’t still to stay
a sandstorm blew my time away
hurricanes and winds and haze
of tomorrows and yesterdays

words on the tip of my tongue
have never sounded so wrong
a storm has gotten me confused
and i’ve got no more words to use

cannonb-lls are flying high
gunfire turned the ocean dry
cl-sters of sh-lls everywhere
with no slightest thing to spare

paradise may not exist
but as i’m clenching my fist
i’ll guarantee h-ll truly does
tortured and reduced to dust!
