Seagulls (The Macroprosopus)

Let us pretend love for the day
This life we live alludes to things away
Suppose in youth the soul depraves
But now suppose the truth's beyond the grave

So all in all we laughed the same tears
Of how we met upon the River Thames pier
Two hearts of gold just for the while
Two Parts to stroll the endless mile

To tame the world again
Let us keep resisting the end
Defame your world pretend
Let us keep existing
So I look up at night and ponder the sky
As I realize the sign where the two points collide
Lead me safe towards the light as the heavens decline
Space fold the time, now let the planets align

Come dear it's safe
We're past the plane
So now this sort of lift
The chance to change

Remember when we sailed along the Nile
Back then you'd turn your head, give me that smile
But through the systems flew the trine
And now, at last, the Nether's made you mine

Only all because you stayed here
Till pachysandra thins away
End summer winds
The leaves will change
We'll grow potatoes
Pass the days
And if you feel precocious lead the way

Up and lift
Sink the same
I begin to sift
Sift through the shame
I realize the gift, feel the rays
As I start to drift
Drift away

Only all because we fade here
When all the notes we passed you saved
All juxtaposed and rearranged
In through the nighttime out the day
And now it's gone forever
