Love During Wartime

from Love During Wartime by Ooni

lyrics

There's a friend I had with a washed out dream
That it all would fall where it all belongs
Where there's vinyl trees next to simple streams
Where there's golden girls on silver scenes

But I can't comply with the picture it's painting
No, I can't align myself with the shapes that it paints in my mind

There's a dream I had made of falling stars
That would build back up to a better start
Made of foreign rain from a different place
Where the people spoke of tongues unchained

But I can't comply with the picture it's painting
No, I can't align myself with the shapes that it paints in my mind

And there's a girl with a lisp who holds twigs like her wrists
Felt a quiet resist to belong to the rest
Fell in love with her father who walked like no other
She buried a feather that looked like her daughter and

I can't align with the shapes of her lips, no, and
I can't comply, for the rest of us followed her fate
Next to her we all live in shame
So afraid, so afraid, so afraid
