A Day Without The Rose

from A Day Without The Rose by Michael Mazochi

lyrics

Well it’s a broken lullaby and a day without the rose
On the passenger side of a van you left behind
And I wish that you were standin’ in your famous actor’s mask
Hiding all your tears in a post-war masquerade
Cos I’d turn the falling rain to wine in a promise I cant keep
In a silent shouting match with fate Id wish my words away
We’d crack the window open wide and have a breath outside
But only when we recognize how much of us has died
--
So set the sails for Mexico, we’ll make our new homes there
We’ll sit around and sing and tell our tales of western skies
And let us speak no more of all our modern tragedies
What’s lost is lost, we’re rollin’ on…
We’re Roll, We’re Rollin on
--
Well coffee stains our sleep in a bed that goes unmade
My thoughts they search for vacancies in the hotel of the priest
But there is no salvation in a land so torn in strife
We only look behind so as to recognize the knife
Like shoeless men on frozen streets all searching for a home
We see what others speak they fear, so wicked and alone
All temporary captives in the cage of iron law
With geographic memories in cracks along the walls
--
So set the sails for Mexico, we’ll make our new homes there
We’ll sit around and sing and tell our tales of western skies
And let us speak no more of all our modern tragedies
What’s lost is lost, we’re rollin’ on…
We’re Roll, We’re Rollin on
--
We could be the ones to turn all of our days to night now
We’ll Dance and take only what we want to from this life
And I know, you’re hopeful of something more than truth
But let’s forget that now, say lets forget that now, say lets forget that now
--
So set the sails for Mexico, we’ll make our new homes there
We’ll sit around and sing and tell our tales of western skies
And let us speak no more of all our modern tragedies
What’s lost is lost, we’re rollin’ on…
We’re Roll, We’re Rollin on
