Sandrevan Lullaby - Lifestyles

The generals hate holidays
Others shoot up to chase the sun blues away
Another storefront church is opened
Sea of neon lights
A boxer his shadow fights
Soldier tired and sailor broken

Winter's asleep at my window
Cold wind waits at my door
She asks me up to her place
But I won't be down anymore

Judges with metermaid hearts
Order supermarket justice starts
Frozen children inner city
Walkers in the paper rain
Waiting for those knights that never came
The hijacked trying so hard to be pretty

Night rains tap at my window
Winds of my thoughts passing by
She laughed when I tried to tell her
Hello only ends in goodye

America gains another pound
Only time will bring some people around
Idols and flags are slowly melting
Another shower of rice
To pair it for some will suffice
The mouthful asks for second helpings

Moonshine pours through my window
The night puts its laughter away
Clouds that pierce the illusion
That tomorrow would be as yesterday
