I`ll Be Brief — текст песни (harem scarem)

(Hess/Lesperance)
Gone incomplete
These tides of a river don`t flow into the sea
And lungs that won`t breathe
I`ve got one last little glitter of hope - a chance for air
You know, I`m gonna take five
As life passes in front of me
No guide, an eternal search for you
Finds mimes, they can but don`t wanna speak
I`d cry, but being bitter would take to long
So I`ll be brief
Calm and so sweet
Yet trying to deliver a jolt to knock me off my feet
When guns and bombs speak
It`s time to surrender the hope
To get me on the next slow boat to Shanghai
And we`ll find one good reason
