The Ballad of Messy Mave
Six shots of Fernet, several Stones I'm in deep
A bruised and bloody heap asleep at my door
How many times must I drink myself to death?
Before I pick myself up of the floor
One door closes and another it unlocks
One door closes but a window it unblocks
The mirror reflects
Sometimes the darkness is brighter than the light
Sometimes the moon outshines the night
Lovers never die
Often I've searched for the perfect words to speak
I could not find my voice until you made my heart sing
So long I've slumbered, but I've never slept as good
As on those nights when I dreamt next to you
Though darkness falls between us
Nothing could dim our radiant glow
No white flags hanging above the door
One day it will be as if we were never gone
Our red thread may stretch and tangle
On through the fabric of all space and time
In one thousand lives I'd choose you
To soar through the stars forevermore
A bruised and bloody heap asleep at my door
How many times must I drink myself to death?
Before I pick myself up of the floor
One door closes and another it unlocks
One door closes but a window it unblocks
The mirror reflects
Sometimes the darkness is brighter than the light
Sometimes the moon outshines the night
Lovers never die
Often I've searched for the perfect words to speak
I could not find my voice until you made my heart sing
So long I've slumbered, but I've never slept as good
As on those nights when I dreamt next to you
Though darkness falls between us
Nothing could dim our radiant glow
No white flags hanging above the door
One day it will be as if we were never gone
Our red thread may stretch and tangle
On through the fabric of all space and time
In one thousand lives I'd choose you
To soar through the stars forevermore
