lyrics

I take all this for granted like I do with sunshine days
And the feeling, it remains like a temple scar.
The rush only digs holes in me and the gold I find is fake
It isn’t ever worth it’s weight. A brick of helium
That elevates above elation and substance.
A drag race up a hiking trail
Where parachutes are just burdens
Hooked into backs.
This melodrama feeds on plastic props.

I’ll patch a blanket change with dams.
Fragments of my youth will hatch
A newly reborn man.
Molting layers cake my earth.
Truffle trends and numb concern’s
A heavy sludge to wade. I’m sinking in.

I leave my bed in afternoons like I do with my own mind
An unkempt and shambled life. I tuck away at night.
With the kind of guise you only make if you have company
Hiding who I really am and how I've really been.

So don’t believe a single word I say.
Reveling in double negatives, struggling
To find positives in the whirlwinds.
My quantum physics sound like brass attacks.

Bolt the locks on habit doors.
Swallow every welding torch
That could burn through this cause.
Hope the bottled yesterday
Fizzles or this all just stays
A fantasy a phaser could destroy.

I’ll just try my best, slow and sure
That the drive is sufficient and steady.
And when I finalize what I’ve barely begun
The journey will seem a moment, gone.
But my lips will say otherwise
A leaking ship wrecking power lines,

Cause I am not a linen antelope
An astronaut in clothes
An angel in the snow.
