Story: Jason Brown

 
 

pretend I am a hero on a bleached and sturdy steed
chasing enemies up a hill, for my lady and my king

then I fly right through the clouds, on red ribbons I can see
hoping only to believe that it's me you really need

half awake and trying to hide, quiet fire that's inside
but it'll burn in there all day because I don't know how to say

that everything I feel is love, and every love I feel is true
but It's too much for them to take, so when I sleep I'll dream of you

and after everything is gone, and nothings left to go on
what will happen of our love and of the life that hinged upon

all those little plants and fishes, and those innocent armies
That if you piled up together still couldn't reach from you to me

for I know not who I am, but I do believe it's true
that every daisy on this planet blossoms just to be for you

and I think that I should mention all this shit has made me ill
though it was not my intention I will probably kill

any hope of flying home, to the mother of my dreams
right it sounds like heaven but it's not as precious as it seems

so forget about my promise, and forget about our life
and all those times I caused your lips to softly bounce off mine

I don't feel like pretending I am a hero anymore
I'd just as soon die lonely not on a hill but on the floor.
