Faster
Reb Fountain Lyrics

I want to go faster can't find the time
I wish to move quickly but unable to due to lack of time.

You told me my flower would sour the wine
You warned me that my actions would only lead to bad consequences.

Drank from my chalice took what was mine
Someone consumed what belonged to me, without my permission.

If she stared hard she could see a lot of things
By concentrating hard and observing carefully, one can perceive many details.

You were famous I was young
You used to be well-known, while I was inexperienced and naive.

Roosting birds fall drunk on the plum
Birds get intoxicated by eating too many ripe plums.

Man killed the bird with the bird killed the song
A person killed the bird which in turn silenced its joyful melody.

Sorrows come in battalions all wounds to be sung
Sadness and grief often come in groups, and they must be expressed or released in some way.

Sweet oils bid her welcome flowers full of perfume
A pleasant fragrance beckoned to her and a colorful array of flowers surrounded her.

Mary and Isis embrace with the bloom
Two strong female figures unite amidst the proliferation of life and growth.

I can't go on telling you lies
The singer cannot persist with their dishonesty anymore.

Some men pluck roses some take to the sky
People have different approaches for finding joy or success.

But I see many feathers just a stones throw
The singer sees many opportunities for flight, they just haven't taken off yet.

You can't catch a comet she's moving too slow
Sometimes it's impossible to capture a fleeting opportunity that moves too quickly.
