Seagulls (the Macroposopus) Lyrics - Commencement '99 - Deadsy

Let us pretend love for the day 

The life we live alludes to things away 

Suppose in youth the soul depraves 

But now suppose the truth's beyond the grave 

So all and all we laugh the same tears 

Of how we met upon the river Thames pier 

Two hearts of gold just for the while 

Two bards who stroll the endless mile 

To tame the world again 

Let us keep resisting the end 

Defame your world pretend 

Let us keep existing 

So I look up at night and ponder the sky 

As I realize the sign where the two points collide 

Lead me safe towards the light as the heavens decline 

Space fold the time, now let the planets align 

Come dear, it's safe 

We're passed the plane 

So now this sort of lift 

The chance to change 

Remember when we sailed along the Nile 

Back then you'd turn your head, give me that smile 

But through the system flew the trine 

And now, at last, the neither's made you mine 

Only all because you stayed here 

Till pachysandra thins away 

End summer winds the leaves'll change 

Will grow potatoes, pass the days 

And if you fell precocious lead the way 

Up and lift, sink the same 

Start to sift, sift through the shame 

As I realize the gift, feel the rays 

As I start to drift, drift away 

Only all because we fade here 

When all the notes we passed you saved 

All juxtaposed and rearranged 

In through the night time out the day 

But now the time forever, turn the page 

To tame the world again 

Let us keep resisting the end 

Defame the world, pretend 

Let us keep existing 

To tame the world again 

Let us keep resisting the end 

To shame the world, pretend 

Let us keep existing 

To tame the world again 

Let us keep resisting the end 

Defame the world, pretend 

Let us keep existing 

To tame the world again 

Let us keep resisting the end 

To shame the world, pretend 

Let us keep existing
