Ephemeral

Sudden anger
Long misery
Long surprise
Sweet, sweet ache
Release them all
Receive them all
Don’t let them sizzle inside your system
Throw them out the window
Some Romeo will catch them below
Here or nowhere
Now or nothing
Sudden, long, long, sweet, sweet
You will have to, you will have to
Or else they will haunt you
Tonight
Tomorrow you will have to close the curtain
Because it will be a cold, cold night
But it will be the sweetest sleep

Gone was tonight
You had to, you had to
Or else they would have haunted you
Sudden, long, long, sweet, sweet
You felt alive, didn’t you?
