Pete Lost the Beat
Lost Melodies and Broken Rhythms: Pete and Eve's Journey
Lyrics
It wasn't looking good and Pete knew it, Eve tried hard to misconstrue it
Pete understood the situation wasn't favorable, while Eve attempted to misinterpret or misunderstand it.
A wild and reckless ride rolling down chance's ugly side
They embarked on a risky journey filled with uncertainty and unfavorable odds.
They practiced bad decisions with an engineer's precision
They made poor choices consistently and with great accuracy, as if following a precise plan.
Wouldn't rise and couldn't shine no matter how hard they tried
Despite their efforts, they couldn't succeed or shine, no matter how hard they attempted.
Eve wrote her song under the stairwell
Eve composed her music in a secluded place, away from attention or recognition.
Pete sang along down dead end streets
Pete sang along in unproductive or hopeless situations.
Last I heard they didn't fare too well
Last reported information suggested their situation wasn't favorable.
Eve forgot the words and Pete lost the beat
Eve couldn't recall the lyrics of her song, while Pete lost the rhythm or flow.
They tried climbing up to the surface but their ropes were frayed and worthless
They attempted to improve their circumstances, but their resources or plans were ineffective and worthless.
Losing hope and searching for purpose they called out desperately
Feeling despair and seeking a reason or goal, they desperately cried out for help.
When their words started losing focus they were way too wrecked to notice
As their communication lost clarity, they were too damaged or impaired to recognize it.
Lucidity so suddenly just a distant memory
Clear thinking suddenly became a distant memory for them.
Eve wrote her song under the stairwell
Eve continued composing her music in seclusion.
Pete sang along down dead end streets
Pete continued singing in unproductive or hopeless situations.
Last I heard they didn't fare too well
Last known information indicated their situation wasn't favorable.
Eve forgot the words and Pete lost the beat
Eve couldn't remember her song's lyrics, while Pete lost the rhythm or flow.
A passing thought a strangled word melodies never meant to be heard
Passing thoughts or incomplete expressions of their music that were not meant to be shared.
A scrawl of prose just to show that they were here
Written words or expressions just to indicate their presence or existence.
But it didn't look good and Pete knew it, Eve went back to Massachusetts
The situation remained unfavorable, leading Eve to return to Massachusetts.
No more wild rides with Evie by his side
No more adventurous experiences with Eve by Pete's side.
They picked her up in the churchyard, caught forging sigs on her court card
They found Eve in a cemetery, caught forging signatures on legal documents.
She wouldn't rise and couldn't shine no matter how hard she tried
Eve couldn't succeed or shine, no matter how hard she attempted.
Eve wrote her song under the stairwell
Eve continued composing her music in seclusion.
She walked alone down dead end streets
Eve walked alone in unproductive or hopeless situations.
Last I heard she didn't fare too well
Last reported information suggested Eve's situation wasn't favorable.
Eve forgot the words when Pete lost the beat
Eve couldn't remember her song's lyrics when Pete lost the rhythm or flow.
