Lyrics for Song: The Never-Played Symphonies 
Lyrics for Album: Swords-Deluxe Edition [2009]
  
               
  15931>Reflecting from my death bed
  I'm balancing life's riches
  Against the ditches
  And the flat grey years in between
  All I can see are the never laid
  That's the never-played
  Symphonies
 
 
  I can't see those who tried to love me
  Of those who felt they understood me
  And I can't see those who
  Very patiently
  Put up with me
  All I can see are the never laid
  Or the never-played
  Symphonies
 
 
  You were one
  You meant to be one
  And you jumped into my face
  And laughed and kissed me on the cheek
  And then were gone
  Forever
  But not quite
 
 
  Black sky in the daytime
  And I don't much mind dying
  When there is nothing left
  To care for
  Anymore
  Just the never laid
  That's the never-played
  Symphonies
 
 
  You were one
  You meant to be one
  And you slipped right through my fingers
  No, not literally
  But metaphorically
  And now you're all I see
  As the light fades
