walk on

do you still have demons in your head?
tucked into the battlefield in your bed?
have you won the battle and lost the star?
have you tried carefully veiling the scar?

of when you accepted and said goodbye
of when you made the vow of no more cries
some felt nothing and felt so free
some bit the bullet and buried the key

but in the end, when daylight's gone
we smile, we stand up, and we walk on




*for those who aren't defeated by yesterdays

a happy ending

is a happy beginning
orchestrated with music
that makes your smile sing
and all your inside tick

and the beat of the drums
matches your heart, matches mine
and the fairies of sugar plums
they sparkle the stars align

hello mr. magpie, how is your wife
no one for sorrow, no ill-fated life
a near dragonfly and a distant aeroplane
they look the same, you are not insane


and a happy ending is a happy beginning
