lyrics

You see when you get uptight
With all our clean lives too far from the fire
It’s so timeless feeling alone
With all my modern lies and this ageless tired
And our daydreams suddenly die
When they reach the light of motion
And there’s all this force that holds you by the throat
And you’re frozen, weightless
And when the running water of each day defines
Deep ridges in our vision
And the dust gathers over sunshine
And enforces our inhibitions
And you can’t move your thoughts through
Your own elation
But this moldy air will give way
Sometime, I can taste it

Keeping up a voice for too long
Suffocating through the unknown
You get up first and feel your first words
Never know when you could let go
There’s nothing I need where I’m off
Celebrate the feelings I know
You’re walking between bare trees in the fall
You’re everywhere at once and nowhere at all
