east of the wall - non-functional harmony lyrics

Loading...

invite you in. sit back, at the bar stool
a few down, it’s stiller than planned
and most of us shy
there’s a drop and refrain
sharp words, harsh beliefs
a few songs down
i’m wearied and i recant

and the singer’s soft-spoken
still cunning but empty
it’s enough to be hurt
a thumb in the wound
i should just walk and let it all glance by

in rhyme, rolling mantras calling on
each time, with the stanzas’ falling hum

heaven knows my dirge
i’ve sighed and crooned each verse
it’s over, and played out
i’ll take my hat and bow

and the singers have spoken
grown cutting and angry
it’s the goal to be heard
a thought from the wound
so i should comply, or think it over?
i’m running away?
no faith in this room
i should just balk and let it all slip by

some in seven, some in nine
crossed words
some rhymes won’t work

spite, emboldened yet trite
i’m weighed and lopsided
you cannot be hiding enough
i tried, time and every time
gave up and i’m fried
now retired, i gave enough

the song’s healing nostalgia soured
now it’s merely maudlin
my sole tenor is drowned out
this din grew dischord. i’m bowing out
so no hesitation, swift on our way
or you’re drowned out
no reservations, no encore to play
i’m bowing out
