Written by Andrew T. Weekes

lyrics

Grew up where the stars fell down like rain, pouring rain
And we would bask in the nighttimes calm, enjoying ourselves in the day
But time passed on, necessity’s game, drifted away didn’t feel the same
And now I watch the nighttime fall in an orange milky glow

Chorus-

Don’t make me, bed of roses in the sky, lord when I die, lord when I die
Lord carry me, to the mountains, lakes and rivers, to the sea, that’s all I need
All I need

My love she was good to me, her beauty the stars, and her love the sea
And we would sit and sip sweet wine, as god cried smog and rain
But time passed, and our love died, I drunkenly roamed the streets at night
That wave crested for twenty years, and overflowed the sewer

Chorus

Now I wait for the passage of years, another bitter fall to taste
Greenery fading to gold and brown, all I ever do is wait
But soon enough, I will be off, with the sun on the morning dew
The stars stood up, and the sky it roared, there was nothing at all that we could do

Chorus
