Eric Matthews Ideas That Died That Day Lyrics

Ideas That Died That Day Lyrics

I'd like to be

Under a warm grateful sea

Just somewhere I can talk about it

For the people who don't care to shake it



The sum of true grief

That runs from you to me

Takes a simple laughter, warm to melt it

Sit right down, you've yet to taste it



I'd like to be

Full of unbelievable speech

Saying truth that no one doubts it

For the people never taught to believe it



Never pleasing love comes easy

Loving all the time

Rushing and pushing are part of the ugly

Curtain we must hide and fade to black



Hide away the shame

And never deny the blame

Take a river with rapids lame

Ride to safety it's fake but a game, a game to play



I wish for me

To capture more than I could be

It's not too late to grow and change that

These very songs and let downs made portrait



Stimulate the disease

Kiss the flowers and hear them sneeze

Gently bend down, scrub all her petals

Mop the blood up, knees on those nettles



Like a child this cage is in need

It's barely ten yet body says three

It's off to bed then five hours later

I'll wake to find the day hardly better



It's not so bad to wake and find that

Dreams were just a play

Something tells me in this new age

I might lose this stage and fade to black



Never comes the day

Players out of play

It's never your fault they hate

Ideas that died that day, the day, yeah
