Memory of a Daydream - Velour Afternoon

It was my first memory Drifting down the aisle Fists full of petals scattered in your path Those sacred vows forever changed my world For better or for worse Countless lives that you plague A disease on the path to your grave Your smile felt like home A comfort in closure I'll never know True colors show with the bottle in tow, exposing you slow The devil inside Still chose to love you Despite the demise of thе man I had once known Countless lives that you plaguе A disease on the path to your grave Your smile felt like home A comfort in closure I'll never know Your smile felt like home A comfort in closure I'll never know Where did your love go? Struck by a worn familiar face Hands that crushed my heart of gold Seasons of life forever change Healing the fragments you still control You are everything I despise Drunken devil, wicked eyes I would bury you if I could (if I could) I would bury you if I could I would bury you if I could (if I could) I would bury you if I could (if I could) I would bury you if I could (if I could) I would bury you if I could (if I could)

The kiss without a single word The touch that pierce my heart without a sword In the absence of your love I go travel far alone into my imagination There was you, a memory of you The night when all things fall asleep That light which lightened us to be so tight With the idea of love I desire dreamy lust, like a fool I lost my way There was you, the memory of you In the absence of your love I go travel far alone into my imagination There was you, a memory of There was you, a memory of There was you, the memory of you

Contemplating every angle to figure out How we wove this web of hate over our house The endless consequences of broken promises Now crashing down in waves and I feel there's no way out of this OH You built a house of glass Just to watch it shatter I Tried to run away but the spirits still chased me I've Done all that I can, to contend with the madness Vision of a family, radiant with merriment Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces Of a home, shattered by it's own inhabitants A family that's starving for a chance to amend To find peace To find peace in our sleep The constant contortion of limbs in my sleep A constant reminder of the people who've failed me Constantly penancing just to get by Forgive me, forget me Let my absence be the water in your well When the lights cut out, will you realize You forged a house of dreams, over dead memories When the tides close in, and the waters rise Will you sink or swim? Or simply, ROT BLEGH I tried to run away, but the spirits still chased me I've done all that I can to contend with the madness A vision of a family, radiant with merriment Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces Of a home, shattered by it's own inhabitants A family that's starving for a chance to amend To find peace To find peace in our sleep Cope With the thought of me belittling you Cuz I can't find the strength, to try and see this through This house of glass (This house of glass) This house of glass will shatter This house of glass (This house of glass) This house was built to shatter Can't you see that we're picking up the pieces Of a home, shattered by its own inhabitants A family that's starving for a chance to amend To find peace To find peace in our sleep

The tax man's taken all my dough, And left me in my stately home, Lazing on a sunny afternoon. And I can't sail my yacht, He's taken everything I've got, All I've got's this sunny afternoon. Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze. I got a big fat mama trying to break me. And I love to live so pleasantly, Live this life of luxury, Lazing on a sunny afternoon. In the summertime In the summertime In the summertime My girlfriend's run off with my car, And gone back to her ma and pa, Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty. Now I'm sitting here, Sipping at my ice cold beer, Lazing on a sunny afternoon. Help me, help me, help me sail away, Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay. 'Cause I love to live so pleasantly, Live this life of luxury, Lazing on a sunny afternoon. In the summertime In the summertime In the summertime Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze. I got a big fat mama trying to break me. And I love to live so pleasantly, Live this life of luxury, Lazing on a sunny afternoon. In the summertime In the summertime In the summertime
