Longevity

Album: Fragrant World (2012)

  • Harmonizing with a ghost of a late face
    Just like the old days
    Golden seaplane
    Dollar tossed in the take bin
    What a bargain
    Turned up in yellow night
    Found oysters on the beach
    Undressed from the waist

    My girl says that
    All the rain promises is
    To give life to the seeds, sea
    Live in the moment
    Never count on longevity
    Please

    Ribbons showing
    Very plainly on her skin
    Okay I want in
    Heels overhead
    With her
    Never monetized
    My lovely space case

    The times I'm in (there?) are cheap
    Legs bruised up from the beast
    Undressed from the waist

    My girl says that
    All the rain promises is
    To give life to the seeds, sea
    Live in the moment
    Never count on longevity
    Please Writer/s: Anand Mathew Wilder, Christopher E Keating
