Perseids Songtext
von John Craigie

You could say there′s been a ton of darkness
You could say just a little bit of light
You could say the same thing, I guess
About the universe tonight

This whole storm began with the flap of a butterfly's wing
I was hoping I could make it end just by doing the same thing
I′m a good one if compared to a bad one
Maybe a good one is enough


Take this time to get yourself free
Take this time to reset
I'm done with poetry
I wanna be obvious

Man it's a slow burn when you come in out of the rain
And I′m somewhere between pretty and plain
It′s a good day if compared to a bad day
Maybe a good day is enough

Ain't no Prairie, ain′t no jungle
Ain't no ocean, I don′t want to travel
Ain't no endings, ain′t no trophies
Ain't no good love that hasn't broke me


I ain′t much for holding on to the pieces
I am more for letting them blow with the breezes
There′s always a new heart after the old heart
Maybe a new heart is enough
