When our rivers run dry and our crops cease to grow. And when our summers grow longer and winters won't snow. From the banks of the ocean and the ice in the hills.
Breathe deep and easy, Swallow this pride. Stare at my shaking hands through bone dry, bloodshot eyes. Clock strip the hours, I count the miles. Will you be there waiting, awake until sunrise?.
Hey, man, now did you hear?. Your final days are near. In a free fall of fire and ice. And explosions in the sky. . A fate, yeah, that we deserve. There's no escape, no.
When faith alone is not enough. To keep our hands barely above. We look for reason and come up empty-handed. And when our children fight our wars. While we sit back just keeping score.
This place rings with echoes of. lives once lived, but now are lost.. Time spent wondering about tomorrow.. I don't care if we lose it all tonight,. up in flames, burning bright..
Chairs thrown and tables toppled. Hands armed with broken bottles. Standing no chance to win but. We're not running, We're not running. . There's a point I think we're missing.
Are there no fighters left here any more?. Are we the generation we've been waiting for?. Or are we patiently burning. Waiting to be saved?. . Our heroes our icons.
I can still remember. The words and what they meant. As we etched them with our fingers. In years of wet cement. . The days blurred into each other. Though everything seemed clear.
We've been alright up until now. But the air that we breathe is about to run out. We've rehearsed our lines clear and loud. But the cue never came and the lights.
The pain. disorder. a cataclysmic dawn. we trusted. . but something has gone wrong. we bought in. but woke to find it gone. impact in 5-4-3-2..... . Brace.
Set me off like dynamite. Strapped tight around my waist. We are the ones in competition. But claim this ain't no race. . Let's go!. . Take a breath and explode like bullets.
To the ends of this lost world. You have marched and you have sworn. To a tainted crown of thorns. . As the hungry sails unfurl. We are thrusted from the shore.
Do you see the world in different colors?. Do you see the world in black and gray?. Alone in your thoughts. How many others have stood where you stand.
Here along we wander and we roam. We cut our teeth in city streets and gutters we call home. Await the day the clouds will part. Deliver words we know by heart.
Wake me up inside. Tell me there's a reason. Take another step. To get up off my knees and. Follow this path of most resistance. How ever it takes us.
So look in my eyes, what will you leave behind once you've gone? (so precious). You got what you came for now I think it's time to move on (went will you stay).
Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.. Always stepped in time, regardless of the beat. I moved my feet, I carried weight. What I could not do I faked.
Are we so alone. So distant. So forgotten. As we think ourselves to be?. . These are our lives. But did they ever even matter?. Are we worth remembering?.
Welcome home. While away. They have tampered with the locks. And your things they rearranged. . "We propose.... ...A better way". Said the note they left behind.
Tell me no if you don't like it. I know what that means. But it's different from when I touch you. Ain't tryin' to fight it. Got a playa all excited, wonder if you can ride it.
