lyrics

I read for my fate
I read for my fate
Verse here on the page
Worth enough to contemplate

I dream on my own
What’s so unusual about that?
Is this not the way you do it?
Is this not the way it’s done?

I might run

Hang about
There’s love to be sustained
Hold the circle
Hold the circle

Gallivant
Joy hungers in restraint
It’s universal
What’s universal?
Half the cups are empty…

I write for my fate
I sing from the place that kills me
Verse here on the page
Worth enough to concentrate

I sleep either side
I sleep either side
Blessings in disguise
Curses on a cold side-line

I’d retire, but

Hang about
There’s got to be a way
Thread the needle
Thread the needle

Find your strength
As August slips away
Lonely people
Are only people
Seeking lives of plenty…

And there are plenty of us
