Who put you on that pedestal
painted it gold
bought what you sold
When you look me in the eye
Is it true love
That you’re thinking of
Why
My mind plays these loops
I’m holding on to you, but you’re slipping away
But there’s no substitute
Why
Can’t find the reason why
You tricked me, you tricked me
Why
My mind plays these loops
I’m holding on to you, but you’re slipping away
But there’s no substitute
Why
Can’t find the reason why
Am I dreaming
Who put that thought in your head
Bewitched you fell
Under that spell
Helpless you did what was said
Bought what was sold
Posed as a centerfold
Why
My mind plays these loops
I’m holding on to you, but you’re slipping away
But there’s no substitute
Why
Can’t find the reason why
You tricked me

Listen
Closer
Yeah
She walks across
the rainbow bridge between
Time lost forever and infinity
He can’t forget
This chronic feverish dream
Her face has haunted him through virginity
How I feel
It’s hard to conceal
This dream’s so surreal
To her he seems to
be so naive
Look past your mirror
To his heart you’ve never seen
To him she seems so
far out of reach
Her wounded child defends her
Like a knight to her queen
How I feel
It’s hard to conceal
This dream’s so surreal

This year the cherry blossoms came two weeks later than last year and cold rain and winds made it a short season as well.

Riptide
Riptide of my soul
I’m tired of waking
with fragments of dreams
My soul’s been mutating
Transhuman machines
Riptide
Riptide it’s an undertow
Lost souls swept right off the shore
Riptide drags you below
Lost souls gone for ever more
We live by delusions
We form in our sleep
Then jump to conclusions
And think that we’re deep
Riptide
Tell me it’s not a game
Tell me it’s not a game
Riptide it’s an undertow
Lost souls swept right off the shore
Riptide drags you below
Lost souls gone for ever more
Riptide
