A Thing or Two of Such About (Eruption Suite)

Listen to A Thing or Two of Such About by Richard Charles Stevens (Eruption Suite)

Listen to Eruption by Flag

Destiny abounds
.
I know a thing or two about recovery
Of trading in the old me for another me
The voyage one takes to greatest rediscovery
When faced with strife contrived to illustrate a life destabilised
And take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
(Destiny abounds)
.
To master our own puppetry
Untangling our strings
As we were not supplied with wings to simply dangle
Shambling through pre-production
Angling for reconstruction
Handling our business
With ambition lifting gifted function
Lived-in we may be
But need not labour on assumption
We are fated to narrate a mazy tangle
.
Take a shine to luxury
(Destiny abounds)
Take a shine to luxury
.
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
(Destiny abounds)
Take a shine to luxury
Make a great eruption kid

I know a thing or two about the voices in my head
The choice where I decline to pay great mind to the lamentable suggestion that the quest is geometric to the end
Too late in the day to make pretend I lend consent to fate
To see me dress lament upon descent
Intent on setting precedent for eloquence self-evident when relevant to essence better spent
Besides I’m not the kind of guy to vent
.
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
(Destiny abounds)
Take a shine to luxury
Make a great eruption kid
(Destiny abounds)
Make a great eruption kid
Make a great eruption kid
Take a shine to luxury
Make a great eruption kid

I was seventeen when I first dreamt of reinvention
Identity was hesitant at best
(That was)
(That was)
(That was)
(That was)
That was then
And this is now
High time to envisage how to give a more preeminent address
Essentially belief is long-term memory redeemed
The extrasensory unsheathe of virtuous blade
Only when we bleed
Can we be clearly seen to breathe
And credence thereby steeps the breeze
To turn the page
.
I know a thing or two of light and day
Renewing right of way
To do or die entitled either way
Reliance placed a smile unto my wizened face
As I remained the same way facing
Famed in pride of place
I know a thing or two of why we shy away from diamond trade
On slightest trace of unsustained devout
Yet still I stand here unafraid
Of death’s caress and tired tirade
To side with fate when destiny abounds
Still I stand here unafraid
Of death’s caress and tired tirade
To side with fate when destiny abounds
(Destiny abounds)
(Destiny abounds)

Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
Take a shine to luxury
(Destiny abounds)
Make a great eruption kid
(Destiny abounds)
Make a great eruption kid
(Destiny abounds)
Make a great eruption kid
Take a shine to luxury

I know a thing or two of grounds
To leap profoundly
Breach the boundary
Sleeping soundly
Whereby dreams be found
I know a thing or two of such about
I know a thing or two of such about
.
I know a thing or two about recovery
Of trading in the old me for another me
The voyage one takes to greatest rediscovery
When faced with strife contrived to illustrate a life destabilised
And take a shine to luxury
.
Take a shine to luxury

On slightest trace of unsustained devout
Yet still I stand here unafraid
Of death’s caress and tired tirade
To side with fate when destiny abounds
Still I stand here unafraid

To side with fate when destiny abounds
