Zebra But No More

The time is now or never

The crashing is coming near

The delphi is on the corner

And he whispers in your ear

It used to be men could be solemn even while laughing

And laughter could be heard shore to shore

But no more

Now all you hear is crying

Cause no one's on the phone

Your feet are just now freezing over

You know that you are here all alone

It used to be men could be solemn even while laughing

And laughter could be heard shore to shore

But no more

When I think of friends and places

Things we wanted, hoped we'd be

All that's left is fading traces

Memories of what use to be

Hear their laughter, see their shadows

Feel the darkness, see the light

We had lit all but lost so quickly

We think we won but we lost the fight

But it's all the same to me

I've seen all I want to see

First they laugh at you

Then they cry

Say they'll always be there

Then they die

So alone yet so alive

It used to be men could be solemn even while laughing

And laughter could be heard shore to shore

But no more
