Real Gone
When I saw you dancing alone
In the dark with just a mind of your own
Reeling your line and getting hooked on a star
But that's no way to melt a heart made of stone
Made of stone.
Youre rolling on grass made of laughter
But take the time to find a way to yourself
It's only a childhood remembrance
That paved the way and left you longing for help.
And when you feel the movement
That's when you'll feel it shine
The twenty with twelve is approaching
Ridiculous will finally merge with sublime.
And then we're gone.
And when you see the ladder within
Well will you jump or even try to hang on?
Wrapping your lips around this permanent bliss
When every dusk becomes the rays of the dawn
It lingers on.
I'm skipping around with a flashlight
And yes I'd much rather lasso the moon
Why was that gentleman laughing when he crushed up the diamonds
Complained that it was all done too soon?
The holy conception is forming
As I strip away this disguise
The wax and the ice that is warming
Will fall like rain and then these tears in your eyes...
They'll be gone.
Real gone.
