Desirable Things
Javolenus
song idea I just cooked up. Will add dry stems. Lyrics:
CHORUS
The world is full
Of desirable things …
The world is full
Of desirable things …
*
I don’t want much
Just what is due
No Midas Touch
No Golden Goose
*
I lay my bones
On a cold floor
Dream in vivid tones
Of things I can’t afford
*
Traverse neon streets
Treading broken dreams
Everyone I meet
Is incomplete it seems
*
I take my bow
But it’s not burning gold
My aim is low
My eye is cold
*
And one desire
Leads to one more
Perpetual fire
Consumes us all
*
CHORUS
The world is full
Of desirable things …
The world is full
Of desirable things …
*
I don’t want much
Just what is due
No Midas Touch
No Golden Goose
*
I lay my bones
On a cold floor
Dream in vivid tones
Of things I can’t afford
*
Traverse neon streets
Treading broken dreams
Everyone I meet
Is incomplete it seems
*
I take my bow
But it’s not burning gold
My aim is low
My eye is cold
*
And one desire
Leads to one more
Perpetual fire
Consumes us all
