Darla Farmer - The Cow That Drank Too Much lyrics

Love was written on a bench in a park The author aimed and struck his mark And let his pen ignite and spark A display of words in red The birds congregate And perch in the trees About how to be effectively free While a child drowns her anxieties In a vice found around her head The television begs and it screams To be heard and believed And the waves I received Are much too frightening The evidence was placed in my hand It constantly contracts and expands And obeys all explicit demands When suddenly Everything is fitting perfectly Now that I've seen the mystery Been left this new perspective Trying to define the objective Solitary actions have their own cause And every action deserves a response But half of my actions are flawed In this dreaded divide I awake and nothing is at it seems I've been affected by a horrible dream Or perhaps just a dead memory It's hard to decide why Everything is falling poignantly I see her face dividing me In sleep I am not safe I wake to think I was not dreaming In the morning it falls away like rain In the morning the dream falls away Like rain on a semi-annual parade I'm the patron that gets washed away Down the drain By the rain Good luck with making evening plans I fell in love with using idle hands I seem to collapse To their every demand In the weakness of routine So I separate my dreams From the truth While I provide myself With positive proof And I discover what it is I can lose So suddenly Everything is falling fatefully I see the past is chasing me Must meet her while i sleep And face the truth In between every dream
