Everlong

My black plague goddess riding rats thru the citadel

Then she crawled up out my wishing well

And whispered "you're diminished pal but i kinda like you spirit"

Do you want some wings you creature?

I muttered in belief

Man i can't believe my luck

This creation of my conscious

Just offered me enough

To sate my constant longing

Be free of my embalming

She said if im being honest

I can read your thoughts

Youll have to give up everything

Everything you love

How much you want these wings?

And my eternal love?

Illl show you all the sacred things

That reside above

So will be like doves?

One of sterling one of rust

Of course your not the maker

There is always someone up

She winks, i love that your not stupid

It kinda turns me on

Well i guess im sold

It always moves along

So as to that sacrifice

Will they suffer long?

Only for a moment and then you can write a song

You know your only

Special cuz you really dont belong

Ive always dreamed of angels and a dragon i could love

I can give you all of that it you just give me a nod

Ill love you more than death and he's special like son

From here until the black holes lapse

And suck us back into god

Oh so he exists i mutter woebegone

Only in hereafter

And by then well be as one

So is the answer yes or no?

My potential darling one

Do u want wings or you want to belong?

I pause but for a moment then say

Give me everlong

Do u want wings or you want to belong?

I pause but for a moment then say

Give me everlong

Do u want wings or you want to belong?

I pause but for a moment then say

Give me everlong
