Seagulls (The Macroposopus)
Let us pretend love
For the day
This life we live
Alludes to things away
Suppose in youth the soul depraves
But now suppose
The truth's beyond the grave
So all and all
We laughed the same tears
Of how we met upon the river Thames pier
Two hearts of gold just for the while
Two parts to stroll the endless mile
To tame the world again
Let us keep resisting them
Defame your world, pretend
Let us keep existing
So I look up the night
And ponder the sky
As I realise the sign
Where the two points collide
Lead me safe towards the light
As the heavens decline
Space fold the time
Now let the planets align
Come dear, it's safe
We're past the plane
So now this sort of lift
The chance to change
Remember when we sailed along the Nile?
Back then you'd turn your head
Give me that smile
But through the systems flew the trine
And now at last the Nether's made you mine
Only all because you stayed here
Till pachysandra thins away
End summer winds the leaves will change
We'll grow potatoes, pass the days
And if you feel precocious lead the way
Up and lift, sink the same
I begin to sift, sift through the shame
I realize the gift, feel the rays
As I start to drift, drift away
Only all because we fade here
When all the notes we passed you saved
All juxtasposed and rearranged
In through the night time, out the day
But now it's gone forever, turn the page
To tame the world again
Let us keep resisting them
Defame the world, pretend
Let us keep existing
To tame the world again
Let us keep resisting them
To shame the world, pretend
Let us keep existing
