Anodyne

By Jon McKay
Part. 1

When she sits
On any park bench
Asking herself

An age old question

With sights set
On all other shores
Asking herself

To tame that hesitation

Bridge

Cause there have bin' times
Getting to like the pain
Being all alone's rage
Running scared against grain

Pre Chorus

But now she thinks
It's time for change
Try a new flavour
Sin for her age

Chorus

Then
Time becomes her
Anodyne
At the tip
And cliffs edge

Then
Time becomes her
Anodyne
At the chip
Of words pledged

Time becomes her
Only
Anodyne

Time becomes her
Only
Anodyne

Part. 2

With no regrets
From sweat in sun
Telling self-belief

I've tamed that hesitation

When light reflects
Tears of a moon
Selling all grief

To no more questions

Bridge

There are no more times
Getting to like the pain
Being all alone's rage
Running scared against grain

Chorus

When
Time becomes her
Anodyne
At the tip
And cliffs edge

When
Time becomes her
Anodyne
At the chip
Of words pledged

Ending

Times becomes her
Only
Anodyne

Time becomes her
Only
Anodyne

Her anodyne
