Flanagan's Song

Lyrics

All the young girls look like ravens
 As they flock around the pool
 And they peck at their reflection
 In the shadows of men's drool
 I could look out there forever
 Forever has no holes
 Through the windows of eternity
 You can glimpse the passing souls
 This party's over
 The bells are ringing themselves
 I'm going home
 She was standing on the table
 With a message on her skin
 I'm a look right in her eyes
 But I could not see in
 I have loved you from a distance
 Loved you from up close
 Like the tiny frog that breathes
 I can nestle in your cloak
 This party's over
 The bells are ringing themselves
 And I'm going home
 I was always in a hurry
 But I never knew what for
 Paranoia chased me out
 And then time just closed the door
 Now the party's over
 The drugs are taking themselves
 And I'm going home
