the roses - november 11/midday/étude lyrics

time ran out on the thoughts you hid
i learned the lesson you never did
and then i guess you kind of got kicked out of the band
there was no one to disguise you, no one to hold your hand
and it hurt, and you fled, and you took those thoughts and you watched them burn
and you pushed me, and i fell down, and you cried out in the name of her
it seems that we are infinite, yet we’re infinite in stride
we all need a joint of refuge, we all need somewhere to hide
we have yet to grow
we have yet to learn
and those we hold
will soon be left to burn
and we’re driving in your car
and we’re deciding who we are
we are young, and it is still dawn
brother, you are older than i, but the day’s still young

we stood together in the midnight sun
you had your doubts, and i had none
time slowed down, and then came the seventh day
i turned ’round, and you had gone away
and it hurt, my brain left, and there he stood in the pounding rain
lost amid the ruin of the echo of a proud disdain
and the rain kept pound-pound-pounding without end
and i guess it sound-sound-sounds like we are friends
but there’s a cold, cold draft
in this fair trial’s flame
someone’s bright, bright ice
has rendered us in shame
and we’re hiding on our shelves
only confiding in ourselves
we are young, and we are not rid of thoughts forlorn
but wipe away that tear, my dear, for it is still morn

and all my friends have been let down
like they could cleanse my conscience now
our confusion is now equal but in age, my delusion is now all that’s left to gage
and it hurts to go back, but ere high noon it must be done
in memory of the frontiers crossed, and the corrals won
appraisal cannot wait another year, lost in gratitude, apology and fear

and the music plays
as the war rages on
and my lone defense
is the power of song
and the things i thought they took
were simply those for which i look
they are love
i can look ’till twilight now, it is but midday
it is but midday
