LYRIC FOR SALE

By Asylum Avenue

Everyone is talking, all their voices are unchained
And their hands are on the cube to solve the riddle
The bloggers and the pundits and the tenders of the game –
They don’t leave room for ones like us in the middle

But Baby, you and I, we don’t need to speak
‘cause we’re clued in to a different conversation
Let’s go gentle into this good night; let’s not shatter its mystique
You’ll find it’s high time for some finer elevation –

Let’s let love do the talking from now on

Everyone is voting, it’s a democratic age
All choices pass through our imperious court
And we’ll push on every boulder and we’ll rattle every cage –
There’s no thought we’d not examine or distort

But Baby, you and I, we don’t need to speak
‘cause we’re clued in to a different conversation
Let’s go gentle into this good night; let’s not shatter its mystique
You’ll find it’s high-time for some finer elevation

And we’ll let love do the talking from now on
Now, I don’t love the mission and I don’t pretend to want
To keep flying over enemy terrain
Let’s stay home with our riches – the kind one cannot flaunt
That’s what the experts and the public brand “insane”

‘cause Baby you and I we don’t need to speak…

We’ll let our love do the talking from now on.
