Verse 1:
Lost my train of thought around Chicago,
Found a little solace where you lay.
Never made collages as a young child,
Not that much to see so much to say.
Now even in this silence there's a thunder,
And rain that steals the breath beneath this cage.
And at least I've got your memory to sooth me,
This bitter poison ripening with age.
Chorus
Verse 2:
Lost my patience well before west fourth street,
Found a copper coin said "Seize the Day!"
And I let the angry audience surround me,
Hiding as I screamed "Give or the play!" (not sure about this line)
Now even in this thunder there's a silence,
A shred of comfort standing at my door.
And at least I've got the sense to reconstruct you,
And leave me twice as lucid as before.
Chorus
Bridge:
Em Am Em Am C G D
And you left your mark, you left your face in the corner of my mind three
Em
times.
Em Am Em Am C
You left your mark, you left your self.
Verse 3:
At least I've got the sense to sense whats coming,
and realize that good things never come to those who wait too long...
Chorus
Thats about it... Thanks!!
