More to Life
Needed my own time
To figure what it’s worth
Monuments of gold
Would not be near enough
Working the late nights
To settle all disputes
No man is an island
Till the ice has melted through
I got your warmest regards
Pulled from the heart
But don’t you know
That’s not the key
Need you to date and sign
Walk on the line
And maybe then
There could be more to life
Given the present
State of these repairs
It seems the answer lies in
Trying not to care
Deep in the morning
I saw your passing glance
But it shed its meaning
Before we even had a chance
I got your angry reproach
Dissonant notes
Without a plan
To bring it round
Sent in the wrong reply
Left by the tide
But still hung up
On if I’d found more to life
Needed my own time
To figure what it’s worth
Monuments of gold

Working the late nights

No man is an island
Till the ice has melted through
I got your warmest regards

But don’t you know
That’s not the key
Need you to date and sign
Walk on the line
And maybe then
There could be more to life
Given the present
