I saw your rope and held out a hope |
|
that you'd try and lasso me. |
|
I bore the thought if you pulled me taught |
|
I'd never want setting free. |
|
The heat haze of history |
|
can't distort or dissolve |
|
the falcons above. |
|
They're memories of what I once was. |
|
The memories of what I once was. |
|
You showed me off like a trophy shot |
|
with a forty four caliber kiss. |
|
And now every drink you buy holds the stink |
|
of the wasted youth that I miss. |
|
The sandstorms of time |
|
can't bury or blind |
|
the falcons above. |
|
They're memories of what I once was. |
|
The memories of what I once was. |
|
Am I better or am I worse? |
|
Is freedom blessed or is it a curse?. |
|
Each turn breeds guilt. |
|
Decisions made |
|
and blood is spilt. |
|
It's kill or be killed. |
|
The heat haze of history |
|
can't distort or dissolve |
|
the falcons above. |
|
They're memories of what I once was. |
|
The memories of what I once was |
