a rhyme that's a laugh

I must make a confession! While writing the third verse for "seize your life" (see: thoughts come like bubbles) I looked up rhymes for "far" in my good old Penguin Rhyming Dictionary. And what did I find - with exception of "star(s)" that I'd already used and that I'm not exactly proud of? The word "are". Now, there's a fantastic rhyme, isn't there? I needed the help of a dictionary to come up with "are" - it's a laugh, really! But it works beautifully, of course:

the beaten paths won't lead you very far
while in your dreams you're reaching for the stars
nothing to look forward to
no-one there to wait for you
you'll remain exactly where you are

if you don't
seize your life
seize your life
seize your life
today

***

You'll find the complete lyrics where you find all my lyrics (if they hadn't got lost like "a new day breaks" that was only re-discovered because MotorPlanet recorded the song and produced it on their demo CD).

Have a nice day and seize the day (carpe diem) or even better: seize your life!

Cheers,

Bernd
