​changes

One fire tall
Rising from the ashes
Diamonds from coal
In their pale blue shine you
Seem vacantly lost
Singing songs to the masses
What keeps that hunger warm

I hear your jaded voice reliving fading songs
Cha cha Changes and Holoscene
The Needle and the damage done
As the night dissolves
When tomorrow comes
Cha cha Changes and Silence
Forever wising they were yours

I’ll beat their needs
Protect them from strangers
We watch the world
Move further and further off
How we stick to ours
Like honey to naked skin
They never will know

I hear your jaded voice reliving fading songs
Cha cha Changes and Riverman
Rhiannon and The Hounds of love
When the night destroys
There’s no tomorrow
Cha cha Changes and Heartbeats
Forever longing to be gone

I hear your jaded voice reliving fading songs
Cha cha Changes and Fountain
A Broken barrel of a gun
And the rising noise
Will settle to the floor
Cha cha Changes and Numbers
Maybe we were Born to run
