Evening's Kiss

In remission of the mind, watch and listen to find

The position behind this illusion of time

Got me countin' my dimes, so on the bus I can ride

I'm even doubtin' the rhyme, I'm in no rush, I can hide

Because I know that I've tried, no longer takin' a side

Tears don't flow from my eyes, no longer go for the lies

I don't protest or resist, I'm not invested in this

I'm backin' out of the fight to give my spirit tonight

Gazing at the phase of an overcast day

Watchin' rain fall from a dim café

Can't see the wind, but I see the trees sway

Now the evening's kiss got me fading away

Just fading away

Just fading away

Fading away

Drip, drop, window pane hypnotic

Klip, klop, concrete heels on it

I'm still disillusioned and cool catatonic

Always in a daze without smokin' that chronic

And the door's still open at the end of the day

And I'm still hopin' without much to say

Then ask me how I'm feelin', well, I'm full of shit and doubt

Ask me who I'm with and I'll tell you I'm without

This phantasm women got me swimmin' through the sea

Apprehension steady creepin', whirlpool is pullin' me

So I might as well relax, go down with the flood

'Cause my heart's been attacked and the sharks smell my blood

If I lose consciousness and awaken ashore

I will never complain, I will never get old

Gazing at the phase of an overcast day

Watchin' rain fall from a dim café

Can't see the wind, but I see the trees sway

Now the evening's kiss got me fading away
