New Lyrics

(no song yet; as you can immediately see, it's kind of a meta thing)

Not Enough Words

v1
Party back porch becomes a stage
Only a mirror
If you could just figure out
Stanza and verse

v2
Useless poetry on summer nights
Light pollution of the town
Rain for her on dance floors
You're not around

v3
You'll take up smoking
Like you took up D minor
Chords of long suffering
Bohemians

Ch1
There's not enough words that rhyme with girl
Not enough words in the world
She's oblivious to this
Flaw of the universe

v4
You'll never do the drugs or crash
The car you need to figure tragically
You'll just hoist longnecks beneath the moon
Smartly rehydrate for work before noon

v5
Goddesses seldom know they are
Though they all seem to share that Greek ruin statue stare
Angels are only under your nose
Never think to write songs for those

Ch2
There's not enough words that rhyme with love
Armies of poets curse god above
She's so oblivious to this
Grand joke of the universe

v6
Holy of holies the chance it requires
Brownian kiss of disavowed desires
The idea may need to dissolve, an orphan
When the 8-ball shake drags you away

Ch etc. out
