True Relationship Widespread Over Your Face

from So Much Hummus For A Day by Eric Petzoldt

/

lyrics

We were both overly sensitive and needed shelter from the storm.
Cruelties of human society covering my mind every morn.
She stood up and was questioning that friendly laughing foe.
As I said hello, I’m a troubadour.

As folks were talking about religion and finding all their paths in jail,
The wind of all destruction was crying loudly that I'll fail.
Although the music and those letters reported welcome miseries,
I dreamt of all-night discussions with candlelight philosophies.

Time passes like a sonata when dropping down to b flat,
As empty phones recall and fake the senses like a painter's color palette.
All homesick hilltop groups of towns send troops of people who alienate,
While travelling to a person who’s a good talking to in our all-time fun parade.

I sing trivial, harmonical in our lost and found saloon – and arguing about silly profs –
When I imply that four letter word phenomenon of one person I want plenty of.
That weight is balancing chaos and cunning change of values.
The creek is heading for the ocean, isolation gives a deeper blue.

All-day similarity by planet sun, it flickers, chimes holy gloom,
Monotonies of scrambling thoughts like you never had before at afternoon.
Increasing nonsense compilations of your feelings you forget to make aware,
You figure out true senses and desire, a compelled standing pair.

Chromatic down the stairs like black-filled notes which are falling down the system,
While conscience tortures joyfully and tragedies include those words of Dylan.
Lousy creatures grasp and scorn those ramblers who are begging for salvation.
The endless difference is a stone which waits tongue-tied for depletion.

You sit there with your sad-eyed view captured by a midwinter’s thought.
And the person on the road is drifting more to the one he does applaud.
Imagine you’re behaving like a ragged leaf that's blown through its damaged place.
The western winds are praising the idea of true relationship widespread over your face.
