Denison Witmer Life Before Aesthetics
I've got more important things
Than shiny diamond rings
And modern furniture
Life before aesthetics was
A nail hole in a wall
A borrowed comforter
Now I wait until the sound
As if I never drowned in my addition
I'm not saying that it's right
But waking through the night I felt it coming
And it crossed my heart
When did all this start
Stand together, fall apart
And it crossed my heart
Hear the oceans as they sing
The mountains and the spring
And all it means to me
Life before aesthetics is
A mindset that imparts impossibilities
Still I waste the chance to give
As if I've never lived throughout deletion (?)
I'm not telling you it's right
But waking through the night
I felt it happen
And it crossed my heart
When did all this start
Fall together, stand apart
And it crossed my heart
And it crossed my heart
I've got more important things
Than shiny diamond rings
And modern furniture.
When did all this start
Life before aesthetics was
A nail hole in a wall
A borrowed comforter
Stand together, fall apart
Hear the oceans as they sing
The mountains and the spring
And all it means to me
And it crossed my heart
Life before aesthetics is
A mindset that imparts impossibilities
