A Legend of A Remarkable Bard
The bright lights of a frozen winter New York Night
Shining above my imagination of love and forgiveness
Luxury cars and smoke filled bars from a forgotten era
The knowledge that I belong in another time constantly scraping my brain with the rake of devils
Alone in a world of millions but oh they will remember me
Yes they will remember me
Probably right after they dismember me
I await the day they sacrifice me to their ancient idols
Until that day I will stick them where it hurts
Speaking words as sharp as samurai swords
As they charge me in hordes
They believe they have me down but I am reaping the rewards
I am immortal forever the remarkable bard
With my written words time shall never take me away
A Phantoms Waltz
Here I am dancing with the phantom once again
To a tune playing from an old Edison phonograph
I am lost in a trance staring at her icy blue eyes
Impossible to realize how much time floats by
Feels like only seconds but it might have been days
I am drunk off her elegance my heart is ablaze
She presses her lips to my cheek as I begin to melt
She whispers in my ear all there is to know about love
Offers me a drink from her flask as she removes her glove
The substance smells like whiskey but tastes like heaven
An intoxicating nectar that can only come from up above
Liquid from the gods to touch these mortal lips
I float up to paradise with my hands around her hips
A Pub Called Running Bull
