Gared Dirge: My All Time Favorites

Nymphetamine Special Edition

Nymphetamine Overdose

This is a love song about a man who is having a relationship with a Klingon. It will eventually be re-recorded, when I find a singer who can sing a good high tenor and pronounce Klingon words.

LYRICS
(C)2025 Ggreg Snyder

(Verse 1)
When I first saw her across the stars,
She called me petaQ, said I wouldn’t get far.
Her batleth was sharp, her gaze even sharper,
But something in her fire made my own heart burn harder.

(Pre-Chorus)
She tested my courage, she tested my skin,
Said, “If you survive, maybe we can begin.”

(Chorus)
Today is a good day to love!
Through battle and blood, the stars above.
It’s a war and a blessing I’m dreaming of,
Today is a good day to love!

(Verse 2)
When passion strikes, it cuts like steel,
I wake up in sickbay just trying to heal.
Doctor shakes his head, says, “Boy, are you sure?”
I tell him her kiss is worth every bruise and more.

(Pre-Chorus)
She laughs when I stumble, but I never fall,
Her heart beats like thunder — I answer the call.

(Chorus)
Today is a good day to love!
Through battle and blood, the stars above.
It’s a war and a blessing I’m dreaming of,
Today is a good day to love!

(Bridge)
Dining out’s a battle, too —
She orders heart of targ in stew.
I try some gagh, she laughs so loud,
I spit it out, she looks so proud.
I’ll raise my glass of bloodwine high,
With my warrior queen by my side.

(Chorus)
Today is a good day to love!
Through battle and blood, the stars above.
It’s a war and a blessing I’m dreaming of,
Today is a good day to love!

(Outro)
So call me petaQ or call me brave,
I’ll follow her fire through every wave.
For in her arms, I’ve found enough…
Yes, today is a good day to love!
