LYRIC FOR SALE

By Magenta Mara

Chorus
One is company, the world is a crowd
I act as myself when there's no one around
Gazing out of the window at the ghost town
Serenity is my favourite sound
Sipping rose tea, living with the owls
Beautifully lost in the early hours
When the sun goes down

Verse 1
I feel more at home in the stillness
In the day's secret minutes
The hidden solitude is for me to find
No unwanted noise to cut through my mind
No prying eyes to bear witness

Chorus
One is company, the world is a crowd
I act as myself when there's no one around
Gazing out of the window at the ghost town
Serenity is my favourite sound
Sipping rose tea, living with the owls
Beautifully lost in the early hours
When the sun goes down

Verse 2
In the opening hours is when I'll sleep
The witching hour is for me to keep
I was never made for the daily parade
Let me stay in the dark, stay disengaged
Writing poetry in place of speech

Chorus
One is company, the world is a crowd
I act as myself when there's no one around
Gazing out of the window at the ghost town
Serenity is my favourite sound
Sipping rose tea, living with the owls
Beautifully lost in the early hours
When the sun goes down

Bridge
Nocturnal
Under the guidance of night
Sky of deep purple
A story behind each window light
Only lit by the candle burning
I'm never lonely when I'm nocturnal

Chorus
One is company, the world is a crowd
I act as myself when there's no one around
Gazing out of the window at the ghost town
Serenity is my favourite sound
Sipping rose tea, living with the owls
Beautifully lost in the early hours
When the sun goes down

Outro
I'm never lonely
When the sun goes down
