lirik lagu rick barry - necessary sonnet
[verse 1]
we were a song
and our love was the instrument
every bad melody
was one more experiment
in heartbreak and loss
all at the cost
of a self fulfilled prophecy
for lovers, star-crossed
we were an army of two
and then you turned your coat in
and became a traitor
to your every conviction
now you speak of flying out
like a drunken acrobat
swinging from lover to lover
without a net
[chorus 1]
but me, i’m afraid of heights
so i’m just gonna stay here on the ground
why should i keep risking my life
when you always let me down
[verse 2]
my wandering eye
was a side effect of loneliness
all of my lovers were
distractions from the darkness
because your loving touch
in all its beauty and madness
continued to fade
into a deafening sadness
now i wouldn’t have guessed
as we lay on this fence
that we would fall victim
to uncertainty’s stench
now much more than miles
separate where we are
and if that’s all that’s between us
there is little left to regard
[chorus 2]
and if there is no need more need for words
well then we are tragedy bound
and too weak to fight the urge
when i always let you down
[verse 3]
sometimes i falter
into a lapsing of memory
and become willing and able
to sacrifice everything
for one more moment
however fleeting
our love is a dream
but i am not sleeping
yeah, you were the phantom
hiding in the attic
your haunting wails
were low yet emphatic
and your every mistake
seemed strategically placed
to weigh down my tear ducts
in hopes, they would break
[chorus 3]
now all of the answers you are finding
they could have been so easily found
your hesitation reminds me
that you only let me down
