Oh lovely night
Thou has enchanted me...
The comfort I've been feeling
Has eluded me tonight...
Cast your eyes into the shadows
Fear not the darkened sword...
The sun has dipped its golden head
Behind the mountain, there to hide...
Each stroke her weathered hand has made
Into the swirls of florid paint...
The earth is cooling in the wake of summer
The trees are deeming such a festive hue...
Little Jackie Ripper perched
on a window sill...
Paint the walls, fight again, I'm past the point...
No longer one to cower down to your heartless...
Hey there Mr. Deejay
Will you play a song for me...
It's seen the birth of many states
It's served us well in many wars...
I put the lipstick upon the counter
As I stare at the one who stares back at me...
Like kindred souls we stroll together
Upon life's dusty road we tread...
