FUTURE PERFECT
(written 2000/recorded 2002/remastered 2005/2019)


dreams of early days
and all the things we loved
get blurred within a veil
there’s no use to redraft

my bones become decayed
and weaker gets my heart
my hands can’t hold a mug
and pills take me apart

medley life has spat out me
my mediocrity
void is filled by tiredness
sidetracked in senility

grim reaper, go away
please come back another day
grim reaper, come here quick
i’m looking forward to that prick

decrepitude

in autumn lights so colourful
the days have bled to death
and we become obituaries
when drawin’ our final breath
the memories and vainglories
fade in the afterglow
and all bereaved were also born
to die and undergo
alone
alone

i tried to move, tried to move on
i tried to keep the pace
but i live by retrogression
until i feel that cold embrace

grim reaper, go away
please come back another day
grim reaper, come here quick
i’m looking forward to that prick

decrepitude

in autumn lights so colourful
the days have bled to death
and we become obituaries
when drawin’ our final breath
the memories and vainglories
fade in the afterglow
and all bereaved were also born
to die and undergo
alone
alone
