lyrics

A Minor Waltz

It’s so strange and touching
This moment in time
I look to the mic stand
It answers in rhyme
The courses of treatment are scary and varied
And none of it helps with my overwhelmed mind

If things can’t be helped
We just leave them alone
And wait for the days to turn fair
When all hope seems lost
We still have our reason
If reason is gone we still care

So out of my hands
In bliss unawares
You spoke to my character
It answers in swears
The reek of behavior is hung out to dry
And none of this fixes what’s wrong with your prayers

If things can’t be helped
We just leave them alone
And wait for the days to turn fair
When all hope is lost
We still have our reason
When reason is gone we still care

It’s one of those nights
Ringed round with thunder
Distracting us all
From the work to be done
There’s no point in bluffing
I’m so bad at poker
Just deal

If things can’t be helped
We just leave them alone
And wait for the days to turn fair
When all hope is lost
We still have our reason
When reason is gone we still care
