CHIMERA from XII by Heliod

XII
CHAPTER V:
CHIMERA

What a relief that our world is so simple and easy to fathom.
There’s only black and white, right or wrong, hard or easy. Only a few categories to sort people and decisions.

Everything else would just be to hard to grasp. To overwhelming and impossible to live by. It would be a chaotic life. Some sort of heresy. Like a creature only real in myths or tales. A CHIMERA.

cynism off

One of the oldest ideas on this project. Started in jams some years ago when @derber.music acquired a new 12 string guitar and since then is a stable live show favourite of ours. Yours too?

Lyrics

Verse I:
Black, white, day, night
The sun and the moon
For sure
There is nothing in between
There’s a paintiff and a judge
Empty, too much
A sinner or a saint
In plain sight
Is the perfect masquerade

Chorus I:
You will fall
Fall
Fall
Apart

Verse II:
Up, down, breathe, drown
Give me the glue
‘Cause this jigsaw
Is so beautiful
Stumble, crumble, a distant rumble
Like a house of cards
You’ll collapse
When autumn starts

Chorus II:
You will fall
Fall
Fall
Apart
