Long White Dress; Words & Music by Marc Meyers

1. They say the ghost of the Len ape,
hunts the wolf after three, A.M., until daylight.
A man can struggle with himself,
lay his torment upon the shelf,
and the only damage done is in his eyes.

(Refrain)
But don't you give up your long white dress,
It may be all you get to keep,
when they come for the best.
Come for the best.

2. An iron guard of mighty strength,
pulled back his bow until it bent, just as far as it should go.
The missile soared far into space,
cutting deep into the waste of a foreign death,
to be our own.

(Refrain)
But don't you give up your long white dress,
It may be all you get to keep,
when they come for the best.
Come for the best.

(Bridge)
The king and the bull gracefully meet the storm,
knowing they must perish,
when the arrow breaks the dawn.

3. Gun shells left upon the floor,
are all that's left of the war,
between the keeper of the tomb and his son.
Each side wanted desperately,
to save you from your misery,
but you never cared enough to see who'd won.

(Refrain)
But don't you give up your long white dress,
It may be all you get to keep,
when they come for the best.
Come for the rest.

4. My magic carpet made of glass,
was meant to follow just one path,
flying higher than before The clouds below don't look too good,
they don't smell fresh just like they should
And the threat of destruction melts the door

(Refrain)
But don't you give up your long white dress,
It may be all you get to keep, when they come for the best.
Come for the rest And dont you give up your long white dress
It may be all you get to keep,
when they come for the best.
Come for the rest

  1. Hi Friends
    My video for my song "Nukelore" is now up on YouTube. You can select the "full screen" option. I believe it is the last button on the bottom right. It is more engaging this way.

    The concept has been in my mind for a long time. It was the painting in my mind when writing this song. I felt it was important to do. Feel free to pass it along if you share the vision. I would love to hear your thoughts.

    Thanks for all of your overwhelming support & love,
    Peace,
    Marc
