Some Lyrics

Megachild came up with a few new songs the other night, even in the absence of our lead singer, who was off on unspecified business of some kind. The lyrics were hastily penned by yours truly. Here's one:

Meer Stroma [Mary Ann in the Mud]

One thing was for sure
The horizon ran around
I was floating in the sky
I was raining on the ground

She was dancing in my hand
A blind ballet
But if I ever closed my fingers
She would disappear like mist

[ch]
Follow her through history
Follow me falling through

Back in those days
My hands were made of clay
I would throw perfect jars
Holding nothing but me

She might as well have been wild
I knew nothing but the room
Between my eyes
Between then and now

[ch]
Circle around, she leads you
Through the field, the only thing real

Story of her life
I could just about make up
Her myth would spread like fire
Like ice in April

But the clock slid off the wall
We all grew into dust
Crawled into wrinkles on her lips
Twinkles in a wheelchair frown

[ch]...
