Don't waste your time Trying to give this Feeling a definition Because it can't communicate What is not directly Expressed with words Don't cry Be happy Be imaginary Polar stratospheric clouds The taste of cotton candy Delicate mesmeric beauty A gorgeous wallow in One way lore This sense of purpose Feels false to me And I see how the land lies There was no harvest time I'll close my eyes And sing to myself a winter song I've always known the Difference between an acquaintance And a true friend Moments by moments Let's watch the flowers bloom Let's watch the flowers die You've watched the ravens You've watched the crows But don't forget your way back The weather has changed it's mind Or maybe it has deceived us all There was no gain for Some personal advantage To believe something That wasn't true A hoax of an mistaken impression The weather has changed it's mind A beautiful smile amongst a shadow The mourning cloaks Are often the first To arrive and the Last to leave of The false spring The memories of scent Are not so easily forgotten Sometimes it was cruel To be so kind Tough and unyielding Yet compassionate Such were the Men of yesteryear Yet, everything was false The medicine, elections, food , The media... We were living in A fabricated fairy tale An illusion of life It was the cause of our demise And the dreams that We would claim Could never be Ours to obtain

A False Spring
Don't waste your time Trying to give this Feeling a definition Because it can't communicate What is not directly Expressed with words Don't cry Be happy Be imaginary Polar stratospheric clouds The taste of cotton candy Delicate mesmeric beauty A gorgeous wallow in One way lore This sense of purpose Feels false to me And I see how the land lies There was no harvest time I'll close my eyes And sing to myself a winter song I've always known the Difference between an acquaintance And a true friend Moments by moments Let's watch the flowers bloom Let's watch the flowers die You've watched the ravens You've watched the crows But don't forget your way back The weather has changed it's mind Or maybe it has deceived us all There was no gain for Some personal advantage To believe something That wasn't true A hoax of an mistaken impression The weather has changed it's mind A beautiful smile amongst a shadow The mourning cloaks Are often the first To arrive and the Last to leave of The false spring The memories of scent Are not so easily forgotten Sometimes it was cruel To be so kind Tough and unyielding Yet compassionate Such were the Men of yesteryear Yet, everything was false The medicine, elections, food , The media... We were living in A fabricated fairy tale An illusion of life It was the cause of our demise And the dreams that We would claim Could never be Ours to obtain
