life, the universe and everything
exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
sunset and guiness
Lyrics
here, with an empty glass
playing solitaire charades
hands waving in annoyance
denying i'm afraid
looking mirrors in the eye
showdowns face to face
quick drawn portrait, conned artiste
denying i'm afraid
hear, with an empty mind
playing oldie now each day
pretense and predetermined
denying i'm afraid
staring shadows down to night
living shades of brave
startled by my persistence
denying i'm afraid
embers left of sorrow,
ashes of despair
trail blaze thru my soul
leaving darkness only there
here, with another flask
drinking deep of yesterday
hands shaking in that sad dance
denying i'm afraid
looking past, the softer sighs
pillowed, cushioned, stilled of blame
a caricature in memory
denying i'm afraid
hear, with an open line
to talk, to speak, to say
partial to the thoughts i find
denying i'm afraid
staring at the distant sight
of loves forgotten, stays
the heart, that last defence
denying i'm afraid
embers left of sorrow
ashes of dispair
nothing but tomorrow's
silence, drowned in tears
here, beyond time at last
denying i'm afraid
