Down from the mountain
|
Running wild through the trees
|
A crystal glimour,
|
rolling along so effortlessly.
|
|
Trickled down from the country
|
But the city sucked it in and spit it out
|
Now the gravity pulls you
|
to the curb side now and it's getting light...
|
|
And it's too soon, too fast..
|
And now they're never gonna last...
|
|
Standing water,
|
standing to close to the sun
|
with your rainbow run-off,
|
you're like a sitting duck waiting for the summer rain to come.
|
|
I was at low-life in the hotlands,
|
I was barely living up to the standard undemands,
|
I had run out of reasons to let myself believe in anything,
|
I wanted to phone home so many times but I'm never giving in,
|
you know dreams never die.
