Who¡¯s got that sinking feeling again?
|
Whose has been out treading water or shadow stepping?
|
Who¡¯s almost invisible?
|
Raise your hands if you¡¯re stuck in stasis
|
Hold them high for holding patterns
|
Somebody scream for stabilization
|
Three cheers for desperate times
|
|
The sound of skateboard wheels is haunting Arlington Ave.
|
With the fog that fell in love with the East Bay Hills
|
There is an old branch scraping on my old window pane
|
It is a distant lullaby, it is a whisper in the wind
|
|
We are all caged birds
|
With burnt nests how can we survive?
|
It is a matter of giving in or giving up
|
They don't want you to fuck with gravity
|
Your beauty may go unnoticed
|
Your good deeds may be unseen
|
But there is a flight well worth the flight
|
So come on and flap your wings
|
|
On a slow walk down Logan Boulevard
|
I find miracles in the details of leaves and lit windows
|
The city is singing, the highway sounds like an ocean
|
It is a distant lullaby, it is a whisper in the wind
|
|
Emergency exits... isolate the isolated
|
Do the mood swing, do the on and off
|
Dear friends, who will answer our pleas?
|
Sleeping beauty, who will hear our prayers?
|
