Way Down Queen

from Demasquerade by Elbury

/

lyrics

Nine in the morning, hardly the right time.
Maybe the sun was too bright, almost blinding?
Maybe the driver was dulled by yesterday's wine?
Nine in the morning, hardly the right time.

A bright Monday is hardly the right time.
Maybe the working week loomed, crowded his mind?
Stepped off the curb early, to save a little time?
Nine in the morning is hardly the right time.

What have I seen?
A glimpse of a life on the way down.
Where will I be when this one
Comes around?
At the end, every word, everything you seem to be
On the road, on a Monday, way down Queen.

In my life, I always tried to find,
If not the meaning,
Then at least get close, some fulfilling post.
Live for a reason.

Never one of those star-guided folk
Always believing In the faint lights.
No, those astral cues.
Will steer you to the moon.

Steer you to the moon.
Steer you to the moon.
Steer you to the moon.
Steer you to the moon.
