about

Acoustic song telling a story

lyrics

I had a job in a factory
Woke up one day had an epiphany
So this is all I am and will ever be
Carrying all my possessions
I travel up into the mountains alone
No direction my mind would turn to home
What am I doing out here
I could be sat with a pizza and beer
Safe in a bubble with all that I hold dear
Now I’m living in fear
Maybe I made a mistake
Thinking that I had a journey to make
Not an original only a fake
Under pressure I break
Planning a showdown with the demons in my head
The biggest part of me now wishing I was dead
A few words were said
I cling on to life by a thread
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a black and white lie you were yellow green and blue
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a wilderness I had a vision it came true
I don’t know what she saw in me
She took me in and she fed me so I
Felt obliged to say maybe I could stay
She found me work in the gardens
I gathered the fruits of the harvest then snow
Many nights were shared in the fire glow
Talking the hours away
Drinking her wine it was all vin-de-paye
She gave a present to me on Christmas day
Round my neck it would stay
Soon after winter had gone
I bought a ticket it was a return
We lit a candle and showed no concern
The candle would burn
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a black and white lie you were yellow green and blue
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a wilderness I had a vision it came true
Now when
Daydreaming I pen
Messages to her
So glad I knew her
Raise a glass to her
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a black and white lie you were yellow green and blue
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a wilderness I had a vision it came true
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a black and white lie you were yellow green and blue
Monalea Celeste I found you
In a wilderness I had a vision it came true
