Zachary James Dodds - 1905 lyrics

rate me

Well, the park-life people sent me off today

With a bright, bound package and pink balloon parade

And with all their good advice,

that when applied, just turns to lies,

and said -don't dare turn back now, okay? - Okay, okay.

And I made my way inside the grey machine

With the work-worn withered bones and smoke and steam

And for everything I've done, I could've won that war and gone,

But somehow, it got to me.

Where is love? Dead to this route.

It's quite meloncholy to think about.

But in the outside air, it's been a miracle year- quite

really lovely- wait... I'll make it there.

It's only for a year I sold my life

To the steel, mechanic motion keeping time.

I wanted just to see if I could stand upon my feet.

I'd never found a place I couldn't find the bright side.

Crawling away from here...
