Lalaland<\/p>\n

 
\nMy aunt used to live in Paris
\nI remember, she used to come home and tell us
\nstories about being abroad and<\/p>\n

I remember that she told us she jumped in the river once,
\nBarefoot<\/p>\n

She smiled,
\nLeapt, without looking
\nAnd She tumbled into the Seine!
\nThe water was freezing
\nshe spent a month sneezing
\nbut said she would do it, again<\/p>\n

Here’s to the ones
\nwho dream
\nFoolish, as they may seem
\nHere’s to the hearts
\nthat ache
\nHere’s to the mess
\nwe make<\/p>\n

She captured a feeling
\nSky with no ceiling
\nSunset inside a frame
\nShe lives in her liquor
\nand died with a flicker
\nI’ll always remember the flame<\/p>\n

Here’s to the ones
\nwho dream
\nFoolish, as they may seem
\nHere’s to the hearts
\nthat ache
\nHere’s to the mess
\nwe make<\/p>\n

She told me:
\nA bit of madness is key
\nto give us to color to see
\nWho knows where it will lead us?<\/p>\n

And that’s why they need us,
\nSo bring on the rebels
\nThe ripples from pebbles
\nThe painters, and poets, and plays<\/p>\n

And here’s to the fools
\nwho dream
\nCrazy, as they may seem
\nHere’s to the hearts that break
\nHere’s to the mess we make<\/p>\n

I trace it all back,
\nto that
\nHer, and the snow, and the sand
\nSmiling through it
\nShe said
\nShe’d do it,
\nAgain.<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
