"One More Chance" lyrics

"One More Chance"

Could be for an anarchist empress
Or my passion for ankle-length gowns
Scarlet ibis
Water, the sacred creature's mirror
But I'm stuck on the ground
Gently calling

But this morning
All that I saw was you
In a daydream
Between those old sheets

Give me one more chance

Been one week
Without the Foolish Love's
Endless reminder
In a vaporous creep

Give me one more chance

So will you be my North Star tower?
Or my compass internal?
So I can get back to you
A grey goose or a blue fish
Once Rufus tattered
I'll rest with you

Just for that one more chance
Just for that one more
One more chance
