Brass Ring

Ricardo Zegri 2005

 

Rocking horse suicide

It’s easier when you’re there

Rubber band homicide

It’s been strangling your hair

 

A tortoise on his back

Well he can’t get up alone

The sun has turned him black

Close his eyes and dream of home

 

CHORUS:

You’re Alone

Your time has come

Rent to own

 

Push away from the table

Dinner plate has gone cold

Should have dined when you were able

Now it’s covered with mold

 

Devil’s laughing in his sleeve

As you pack up your things

Will you miss what you leave?

That depends on what you bring

 

CHORUS

Memories are landmines

The road is littered with bone

Stand still or walk the line

This life is rent to own

 

CHORUS
