lyrics

Ambition was lost in a moment, Ishihara you broke all my dreams.
No matelot carry-on in my Father's footsteps, just dreams of what may have been.

Years speed-up and I'm ageing, great things that I cannot mind.
Achievements they are legendary, they're just myths in the past unkind.

And it's nothing, to do with you.
But my mood is, I assume blue.
And my assumption is based on what I can't see.
How can I nail it, when it's unique to me.

Lost in ah head/tail moment, an old dog can't find his bone.
Huffin' and puffin' sweet nothings, A teenager misplaced his phone, a socialite who's all alone.

Red/green anathema to me, nothing is quite as it seems. MA as a footnote, instead of RN.
I'm a poet that's lost all his dreams. I'm a geyser that's run out of steam.
