Spring and a Storm (Demo)
[Verse 1]
One time, I tried to sing
About spring and a storm
But you know how it goes
"Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah-blah, blah"
All along
Won't you please stop complaining?
I'm playing a song

[Chorus 1]
But all the rain drops through the same
Falling to from where they came
And in time they all evaporate back to the sky

[Verse 2]
I wish you could've heard the music
When the clouds growled overhead
I finally felt enthusiastic
I finally felt alive!
"Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah-blah, blah"
So you said
"Would it please you to listen
To thunder instead?"

[Chorus 2]
Man, the rain came down that day
And it drained my dreams away
And I almost never tried to try anymore
[Bridge]
Mr. Moon?
Yeah?
Tell us about the sky!
The sky is deep and dark and eternally high
Many people think that's where you go when you die
Do you?

Well it seems to be tricky to tell
Were there ever a heaven or hell
Play pretend, my friend
And lose yourself in the rain

[Verse 3]
We have so much left to sing
There's a storm for every spring
All you see and you and me, became from a star

[Verse 4]
You're a star
Yes you are
You're a star
Yes you are
You're a star
Yes you are
You're a star (Silent explosive and silent explosive)
Yes you are (And silent explosive and silent explosive)
You're a star (And silent explosive and silent explosive)
Yes you are (And silent explosive and silent explosive and...)
(You're a star)
[Outro]
Create until nothing is left to create (Yes you are)
And the universe bursts with an overworked sigh (You're a star)
And pretend to, pretend to be crowned a creation (Yes you are)
And then sing the same things 'til the clouds start to cry and then (You're a star)
Over, and over, and over, and over (Yes you are)
And over, and over and never again...
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah-blah, blah...
