Holocene

Darkness on the edge of the noun

Connects me to all that I know and love

Lucy's sent his fiercest hounds

To rip apart all that I hold above

Wrote this song on the day he died

And it's oh so plain to see

I may never understand

What's been placed in front of me

Ain't life a dream, driftin through the rain

Whole of holocene, between my eyes and brain

I'd trust just bout anything

If it was said to me straight

But I can't remember a thing

That's been said to me of late

My baby turned to me and said

"There's more than this to life"

But all that comes to my mind

Is like an opaque crystal knife

Ain't life a dream, driftin through the rain

Whole of holocene, between my eyes and brain
