TelescopeAndy HillTelescope( © Music and Lyrics Andy Hill) A billion disconnected stars A billion roaring flames Ego’s pointless little wars You can almost give them names I know its there inside me To let a better spirit guide me Back to that world we used to know But when I finally caught your eye You were looking through a telescope At a galaxy that used to be A zillion years ago Rumor’s ugly repetitions Over time and distance And willing apparitions Of mutual resistance That’s how a ghost becomes a tyrant Though we’re both so defiant Of that very ghost we cannot overthrow But when I finally caught your eye You were looking through a telescope At a galaxy that used to be A zillion years ago I thought I’d never want to see your face again From a reliable but undisclosed third party’s pen Comes word that cross you bear is heavy as it’s ever been But outside the asylum my old best friend It’s a blizzard in December A frozen wasteland of regret Where what is useless to remember Is crucial to forget And I would just let it all roll on by Accept a why for a why Besides I’m thirsty and what’ll we do anyway With all this snow? |
