some power chords and things
exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: interesting moon this morning, decided Bowie should have written another new years eve rock song or actually one with a harder edge lol so i did
Lyrics
when we thought we sang of tomorrow,
we sang of yesterday
the something blues and always too old
untroubled by blood stains
when we fought we sang of warriors
we sang of monsters slain
the nothings true and the either ors
untroubled by their pain
when we thought, we sang of tomorrow
we dream to go today
the something new and always borrowed
sending the present on its way
when we fought we sang like warriors
our voices steeled to rust again
the nothings blues and the neither nors
untroubled by the sane
Here we're sitting on the doorstep
Hearing knocking on the door
whose coming out, in that instance of neglect
the wonders of the world before
Here we're standing on the precipice
watching an elevator through the floor
whose going down on that system of forget
the wanders of days of yore
when we thought, we sang, of tomorrow
we seemed to drift and play
the nothing new and always too cold
the frailty, too soon, that comes with age
those kinds of smiles they never fade
