Repeat the Pattern

[Verse 1]
Set yourself to the side and admire this anonymous place
The riff to fill up the hours, stretched for years, the space of a day
A rush of rippling paths, echoed lines, that bend and decay

[Chorus]
What a laugh
Whatever lasts
Repeat the pattern from the beginning

[Verse 2]
Set yourself to the side and admire this anonymous place
Ice that blankets the hills and beats the bramble down to the clay
Bare ground in between where you were born and where you were laid down

[Chorus]
What a laugh
Whatever lasts
Repeat the pattern from the beginning

[Outro]
Conjured life
I've arrived
If I only could keep you
But it wasn't real
Conjured life
A meadow that shimmers in memory
But it wasn't real
