Rise from the ground from the earth
Searching for love in forms it never takes
In places it will never be
The lengths we'll go, the distance we'll seek
Further and farther away from touch and blood to an endless flood
Hold onto, hold onto your, hold onto your likes
Let the screen hold you, let your wishes hold you, let the boxes keep you warm at night
Can you walk away
Can you leave it all in the past
Can you escape your heavy life
Can you stay away
Can you close your eyes to the future
Can you turn it off for just one night
Will you find a way
Will you hold out for something that feels right
Will you make good for your place in time
Will you run away
Will you climb out from under your burdens
Will you follow me back to when we were the scum of the earth
Oh lucky me, lucky mud
I stayed on the shore and waited
Our energy is disconnected

Pelican, Fly

Take yourself out of the picture
Erase yourself from my memory
One more time
Not over and over
Or I will fly
Fly away
Don't know what's right
But I'll do what's right for
me
You want love
from everyone around you
You give love
to everyone you see
You want to be free
Free but still steady
But you can't have your freedom
With or without me
You want so many things but
You'll never change to get them
The cycle starts and ends too many times to count
Why do I keep on forgiving
I can see the difference I can make
I can only keep on living
There's no bottom to this man made lake
Oh I can see you're trying
Your life was never easy
Your mind is clearer than it's ever been before
So I'll keep on keep on waiting
time will come and go around again
There's no use in separating
With our wings so bound
Take yourself out of the picture
Erase yourself from my memory
One more time
Not over and over
Or I will fly
Fly away
Your life was never easy
You've fought to keep on living
The cycle starts and ends too many times to count
So I'll keep on keep forgiving
Till I climb out of this man made lake
I want so many things and
I'll always change to get them
My mind is clearer than it's ever been before
There's no use in separating
With our wings so bound

Empty Streets

From crowds, the crowds
The streets are empty now
It shows it shows
No normalcy we know
It spills out of our throats
And into the throes
Our lights are turning low
But we know
There's no coming back
From ease, the ease
It’s all a challenge now
We thought we'd be (we were so sure)
Out of the pitch black
We thought we could see (there was an end in sight)
Instead our hands are pressed against the glass for another night
The time, the time
No reason, without rhyme
The months are days
An empire in decline, so stuck in its ways
It spills out of our throats
And into the throes
Our lights are turning low
But we know
There's no going back
Ahhhhhhhhh
Ahhh aaahhh
The crowds, the crowds
Are full of power now
It grows, they grow
Will those we fight against ever reap the fear they sow

Your Last Day
04:18
|

|
when the light comes through
in the morning, remember
all the darkness from yesterday
when the golden hue
of the sunset takes over
it's only on the surface
another day is ending
when the glimmering blue
of the night sky charms your eye
those stars have all been dead
for hundreds of years
there's rest in reality
it's not all your responsibility
we never knew before we were born
and we'll never know after life is gone
set your sadness free
laugh at the absurdity
from water we came and to dirt we'll go
so in between do whatever makes it easier
on your last day
with your last thought, remember
you’ll never know the answers
