Guitar, Candles and Fantasies

When guitar, candles and fantasies

Are all you do and dream

Books, cds, angry chords

Ice cream, chocolate, sad movies

They aren't what they used to be

Beneath the lines there's more confusion

Behind the sweetness lies a fine line of pain

Morose turns to mad changed to numb

When flowers, swingsets, clouds

Are all you see

Playing games and being the best you can be has disappeared

It's overrated when people think the A's and the MVP's take it all

Successors gain only credibility

While you sit there doused and cursed with the fair mind you posess

Pretending you long to be them

But can't pretend any longer

When guitar, candles and fantasies

Are all you do and dream

Things aren't what they used to be

But in the end they're what they seem

A song. A life. A tragedy
