inspired by bungou stray dogs and other poetic themes, "verlaine" is a song about regret and memories.
lyrics:
Drowning my sorrows
With claire de lune
I was your poet
Love gone too soon
Fate has conspired
To curse us each
I see you standing
Just out of reach
You chase storms and bring them to me
But I fall into your gravity
Said you wanted what was for the best
Now you’re a stranger locked in my chest
I was reading Verlaine by the moonlight,
Dazai by dusk,
I write my heart out
Or I’ll be a husk
I don’t miss you anymore
And I think I’ve grown strong
Though, I can’t help but wonder if
I’m doing this wrong
Can’t you see me?
Can’t you see me?
Won’t you see me?
I can still see you…
You chase storms and bring them to me
And you loved me so carelessly
Take your hat off and take a bow
You can’t even look at me now
You chase storms and bring them to me
Wolves and sheep in their poetry
Lock it up and throw away the key
Lost to the darkest memory
