Better Soon

I've carefully chosen my artillery
And to the front we march to battle free
And by the break of day we'll win this war
If to the death our opposition falls

The light is fading fast, the night descends
Our numbers few, on strength alone depends
God give us will, God give us certainty
A chance encounter 'tween two sides of me

And it's better soon, I'm sure
And it's better left before
It gets too big, and it hurts too much
And it steals away what I long to touch
And it hurts right now but it's apt to change
Just a reflex now and it's rearranged

They fought a brave fight but the truth be told
Their sergeant major had a heart of stone
On the horizon met their fellow few
And realising, and realising what to do
They threw their weapons down and took a stand
Seemed propaganda had until now bound
They'd never fought for anything but hate
And realising, they realised they weren't too late

And it's better soon, I'm sure
And it's better left before
It gets too big, and it hurts too much
And it steals away what I long to touch
And it hurts right now but it's apt to change
Just a reflex now and it's rearranged

  • Somehow I missed this song, but I'm so glad I've found it now! I love it so much, and it has to be my 3rd favourite of your songs :) All your songs are similar, yet really unique, and this one is melancholy, simple and beautiful! I really want to go buy your album, despite the fact I also want to wait and buy your full one at the end of the year, but I really hope this one and Narcissus will be on it :)

  • Cheers, viki29. "Unequal Measures" is in fact a full album. My thoughts are to include this and possibly 'Narcissus' on the next :-) Peace
