In every story, every secret told
|
You are not the first to wake up
|
To learn your lines before you have the part
|
You woke up early and you walk up torn
|
You the temporary boarder
|
The heat wave humming in the house of cards
|
|
You spun chapter into rapture there
|
Yeah you were as brave as traffic
|
You chased the spotlight into her arms
|
And you forgot that you could file the knot
|
That you were still the person sleeping
|
The heat wave humming in the house of cards
|
|
A play for the girl
|
a cross for a hook
|
Sinking into the green sea wonder
|
Under the sea
|
walking the floor
|
Over the waves the wheeling thunder
|
|
Something's unguided in the sky
|
Tonight
|
There is something unguided in the sky
|
|
You wrote yourself into a corner, safe
|
Easy to defend your borders
|
A fallen saint into a whispered time
|
Killing time because I have to, why?
|
Because it isn't mine, remember?
|
Killing time because it wasn't mine
|
|
You're earning your stripes
|
You're counting the stars
|
You're winding your barely working watch
|
You're lucky to be
|
On a land like you are
|
Lucky you've already become
|
|
There's something unguided in the sky
|
Tonight
|
There is something unguided in the sky
|
|
And why wait
|
For the weakened state
|
To lie next
|
To the weaker sex?
|
|
And why wait
