Bugle Boy Lyrics

The country is riddled with social ills & aches,
But my heart is calmed by her embrace,
I'm trying to tell something to the world,
But my words are slurred & slow,
Have you ever been caught up in a dream,
Where your legs were froze.

I was left alone, with my thoughts and my guitar.
But it felt hopeless,
Like the desire of the moth - for the star.

Sometimes nothing seems unreal,
This strange little boy said
Mister, play us your guitar"; & I said
No I can't
& put my geetar, in the car-
Listening to the music of heaven & earth,
Have you ever thought you were the
Most important thing in the universe.

I didn't know whether to strengthen my
Weaknesses - or play to my strengths.
Yeah
I was trapped in the triviality of
Everydayness.

I said.
There's magic in my head, girl.
But I only use it when I'm depressed
I don't suppose she heard me.
She was too busy admiring her dress.
I said - just young - & - well intentioned,
Who can save us now.
The world rots
I did know the secret of the universe
Only I forgot!!
