Beauty Seldom Seen

It's a long string of failures

and bad news bearers, broken testimonies at bars

Call me a city light fighter

the dull stars look brighter, depending on where you are

I'm tossed like a necklace

of a lover gone careless, in the throes, in her arms

Forget all the trends,

the shows no one attends, stop waiting to play a part

Here's to us and all we have done.

Let's get out of here, who should care or call?

Beauty's seldom seen staring at same walls

Stand and deliver, let them drag the river,

but can't you remember rock and roll,

and how it made us feel?

Nostalgia's back hand stings

when your bell rings, we're statues by a phone

Go anywhere but this place,

with steps we can't trace, giving off a lonesome tone

Killing time on the delta,

and I want your shelter in a slow tune of memories,

It's been a long tired dream,

fighting for losing teams, and I feel like a refugee.

So, here is to us and all we have done.

Let's get out of here, who should care or call?

Beauty's seldom seen staring at same walls

Stand and deliver, let them drag the river,

but can't you remember rock and roll,

and how it made us feel?

Can't you remember rock and roll?

Can't you remember rock and roll?
