rory mcbride - the soft mirage lyrics

[train sound (in distance)]

huuuuuh! huuuuuh!

ahh+ ah ahuhuhu
ah oo oo +
oooo

waves oscillate
sonic smoke and
cosmic stardust just the same
but oh
my love for you stretches out forever
doesn’t have a name
clear to see
blanket boundary
but what of me
and what
what about this one+way ticket
i’ve been issued by the gods
what are the odds?
gonna make my course
to you without remorse
hop up away
so it’s my prayer
aeternum deus, oh
make my way to you
through pathways, causeways
i’ll peddle stars if i have to
i’ll make it through
i’ll make it, ooh
see you soon zeus
see you soon
ahh, ahh, ahh
[tokyo (sonic montage)]

i ain’ goin’ down
i ain’ going down
oh i ain’ goin down to the well no more
see my brother
see my sisters
just the same
doesn’t change
i ain’ going down to the well any way
rock island line
it’s a mighty good road
if you’d like to ride
but you gotta’ get your ticket
on the rock island line
train’s coming round
and you know what happens
when the train comes
around!
well i know you heard the
story of the grey goose
he got away
preacher tried to shoot him
cut him up
and feed him to the hogs
no good
he still got away last time i saw him
he was smiling and flyin’
over the ocean somewhere
that’s a happy grey goose
well i woke up this morning and the blues
were all in my bread
so i said
good morning and good evening and goodnight blues
blues were all in my head
ohh
[new york city (sonic montage)]

boy they always used to say to me
roy we really like your poetry
so i’d pull out some lines at a party
and read for everyone
they’d say
make all the pretty girls
sing and dance
romance
a poet with an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper
pulls it out
and says
hold on to your seats everyone
did ya’ hear the one?
bout all the mirrors and eyes
a refracting brigade
of kaleidoscopic light
but there was
too much refraction
too much reaction
created a chaos
a morass
hallucination hall
of delusion
seemed to be no solution
and everything was
primordial, dark and black
but then, the answer appeared
bright light!
sunshine!
oh but the mills of the gods
they grind so fine oh
now
in the past
in the future
they grind so fine
ohh
for all of time!
[paris (sonic montage)]
