What I draw today
|
could be recognized as shape
|
|
I spoke to the base
|
and the base says we wait
|
so I smoke an old cigar
|
while they're trying some things
|
|
see I spoke to the base
|
and the base says we wait
|
the base says we're safe
|
|
now and then can I see the truth above the lies
|
now and then oh I feel you're truly amidst the tides
|
that's why
|
|
When I walk today
|
it's in silence and in rage
|
can a man turn the page
|
while he's trying to amaze
|
(any other)
|
|
so I hold my arms apart
|
and won't deny you anything
|
(any other)
|
|
see i spoke to the base
|
and the base says we're there
|
the base says we win
|
|
now and then I can see the truth above the lies
|
now and then oh I feel those beauties it's like their lights
|
|
they're like street lights
|
they tunnel on and on
|
into these deep nights
|
where the lights circle on
|
oh so steep
|
so steep
|
|
so steep
|
so steep
|
so steep
|
|
(I count the falling stars) so steep
|
so steep
|
so steep
|
so steep
|
(I count the falling stars) so steep
|
|
I will not be staying long
|
|
now and then I can see the truth above the lies
|
now and then can see those beauties that shine my eyes
|
that's why
|
