Times Like This
I met an old man of many names
He told me of his constant pains
Afflictions of the soul
He said
It feels like standing on the edge of time
Waiting restlessly in line
For his turn in the hole
At times like this
I wish for the bliss
Of comfort in the night
At times like this
To exist for the kiss
Weightless floating delight
At times like this
A kiss
He said
It's not the same old story
Not a quest for love and glory
It's painful, gritty and corrupt
The world don't always welcome lovers
Happiness is often meant for others
Some do
Some are fucked
At times like this
I wish for the bliss
Of comfort in the night
At times like this
To only exist for the kiss
Weightless floating delight
At times like this
You wish
I once knew a girl who was light on her feet
She was moving her body to a silent beat
Of a secret tune in her head
She's now a ghost in my distant past
I was slow
she was fast
Ah, there was so much
I left unsaid
At times like this
I wish for the bliss
Of comfort in the night
At times like this
To only exist for the kiss
Weightless floating delight
At times like this
