Liner Notes

#acousticrock I chose this title from the skirmish because I thought it sounded like Def Leppard.

Lyrics

[1]
We’ve all heard the stories
In the last three days
Life has lost its shine
It happens to people
In hundreds of ways
Like tomatoes that dropped from the vine

Sparkle shift expectation
Sparkle shift situation
Sparkle shift devastation

[2]
If you don’t want to
Turn on the radio
And you don’t want to go to the door
If you don’t want to know
What you don’t want to know
And you don’t seem seem to care anymore

Sparkle shift expectation
Sparkle shift situation
Sparkle shift devastation

[bridge]
When the night is black
It doesn’t help to fight back
And what’s the use
Of wasting a flame
From the sign on the door
You know it for sure
Things can never
Be the same

[3]
It’s all touch and run
And you throw up your hands
What more can you do
Now there’s nothing
Nothing left of your plans
That’s how you know that it has happened to you

Sparkle shift expectation
Sparkle shift situation
Sparkle shift devastation

Sparkle shift expectation
Sparkle shift situation
Sparkle shift devastation

We've all been there - well I certainly have. The lyrics really bring it home. I really like the chorus of this and how you sing it. :-)

This lyric is a case study on my brain. It seems like many brains!

Love the imagery of Sparkle shift.

Great title - how can you not click on "Sparkle Shift Devastation". I wonder how many people's expectations have been satisfied by the sparkle shift in the past couple weeks?
