Repeat the Pattern

Set yourself to the side and admire this anonymous place The riff to fill up the hours, stretched for years, the space of a day A rush of rippling paths, echoed lines that bend and decay What a laugh Whatever lasts Repeat the pattern from the beginning Set yourself to the side and admire this anonymous place Ice that blankets the hills and beats the bramble down to the clay Bare ground in between where you were born and where you were laid down What a laugh Whatever lasts Repeat the pattern from the beginning Conjured life I've arrived If I only could keep you But it wasn't real Conjured life A meadow that shimmers in memory But it wasn't real
