about

Written by Christian James Guarin.

lyrics

Darling, could you be gentle on me?
I'm afraid I'll have to play my losing hand,
and if you don't decide to call me on it all that I have said will have to stand. Leave it open. Keep me hoping
that my broken bones, awoken, now will stay in a place where they're believing they could dance away the evening...or the day. But, if in seperation, remind them the elation that they felt when they were free. Though, loneliness in motion is nothing like the ocean, moving whole in solemn peace. So, if there comes a day when all of them may say "We need a body, not release." Correct them, then direct them back to me.

Hear the music? Nothing to it. Seems to me melody, an empty page filled by lonely men who are afraid of growing old...to waste away.
