Anomie

Anomie -Richard Lewis

All unbound

You find it embarrassing

When the winds have blown you

Cinders and tumbleweed

From the lost and found

Of places that love denied

Pound for pound

Unsound

Town to town

You move without memory

When the birds have flown

There are things you won't throw away

So you gather round

These pirates and castaways

A paradise

Unfound

Que seras tu perle éph ém ère

Àl'aurore vierge chim ère

Je serai nuage d'azur

And the sun goes down

Que seras tu larme tremblante

Àla premi ère aube troublante

Je m'envolerai r êve d'or

Je m'envolerai r êve d'or

And the sun goes down

And the sun goes down

And you cried in the marshes

And you cried in the fields

And you cried for your roses

And you know how it feels

To be tied to a promise

That you can't hope to keep

And it burns out your daylight

And it darkens your sleep

And the sun goes down

So you've gone to ground

With your jasmine and cedarwood

But the wind still calls you

On a bus ride to anomie

And I'm still here
