And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
by a moment complete in its happiness
Far away from the things that we wish to escape
that lead us to think we are not awake
We are ourselves despite ourselves
this place gets smaller as the universe swells
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually.
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
And I am not the only life guard who's washed up on the shore
Wake me up take me out
Calm me down when I'm in doubt
And I'm in doubt
Everyday
And words are like weight with density and shape modifying forms they evaporate
You can choose the truth you can listen to light
you can lead the charge and still loose the fight
Far be it for me to claim anything
for I am just one in a state of being
I come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only proverb that never really fits
And I am not the only Caulfield who's catching more than kids
And so it ends as it begins as everything that is infinite ascends
Into it's time all things pass all things fade all things last
You are yourself despite yourself
this world grows smaller as the universe swells
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only boxer that hasn't words to write
And I am not the only poet who's much too scared to fight
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
by a moment complete in its happiness
We are ourselves, eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
This is my first ever attempt at this, so please don't hesitate to correct me. I believe
transistion are all in the correct places but I'm not confident I have the chords
especially in the chorus. Thanks
Huck
