Adrian Orange - Strange World

the cold, unwelcoming visage
of the world wants a stranger's love.
the world is such a pretty girl
and hard to get.
but one girl will be my whole world
who gives me a whole life of love
who can i not get enough of.
i'm faithfully your husband, my wife
though the whole universe is outside
and two worlds exist in the same sky.
the surreal real and what we name,
believe is real, day to day.

i hope that when the judgment comes
and old hannah sets not to come up
that we will meet where work is done
and be in love forever,
two as one.

but now the vultures have begun circling.
i know what they want with me.
it's not that i don't want no friends
but just that i'm really alone anyway
until the end.

the winter simply makes dark days
so keep a fire going
in the place.
