Letra de Dragonfly

In New York Palace
From the 46th floor
I spied a dragonfly
The size of my fist
Like the one I’d drawn
Carefully as a child
Pinned high
In pride of place
On the classroom walls
But the bot boys
Of angry youth
Burned down my school
Father caught flames of Hell
Filled in his archive
I never saw logic behind
Collecting reasons why
Mother’s wearing old silk dresses
Hiding her pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone
Stolе her time
The bеll brings
A stranger
Memories divide
Ever-searching
Snapshots of our lives
When we are truly safe from ourselves
And the ones we hold too close
Oh how I have not lost
My innocence
Mother’s wearing old silk dresses
Hides those pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone
Stole her time
An actor’s
On the wrong stage
With imperfect lines
My dragonfly beats its wings
In vain, so high
I hope I don’t loose my lines
Mother’s wearing odd priest dresses
Hides those pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back and see that someone
Stole her time
Mother wears old silk dresses
And hides those pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone
Stole her time
