lyrics

Up high:
Under the next ground.
Smooth wind:
Above swaying around.
Purple skies can’t see them yet. Hue gone askew from a chemical jet.
Watch the world become a view. Viewing only what has just been left to doom.
Living by myself in a little panic room, manic in a hammock in middle of 2 brooms
Looking for the life that’ll tie me down. Waiting for a sound with my ear to the ground
Watching success as I fail with so jealous
It’s envy.

Look across the sidewalk, at Mr. Has A Thing I Don’t or
Mrs. Has That Thing I Need, just think about the greedy feeling that’s
Lurking in the darkness, in the place where people’s hearts should be,
The creeping little devil that just tells you that it “should have been you” when it “wasn’t”
Take that little creature and strangle it to death so we can
Save the planet faster and avoid a huge disaster.
The only time to focus on what other people have is when the
People with too much won’t help the ones who truly lack anything.

Purple skies can’t see them yet. Hue gone askew from a chemical jet.
Watch the world become a view. Viewing only what has just been left to doom.
Living by myself in a little panic room, manic in a hammock in middle of 2 brooms
Looking for the life that’ll tie me down. Waiting for a sound with my ear to the ground
Watching success as I fail with so jealous
It’s envy.

Look into the future and hope for the best things and
Look into the past to see what never shoulda been there cause
We can all be the fucking best things in the fucking world and
anybody that doesn’t think that should just go fly a kite.
Look across the sidewalk, at Mr. Has A Thing I Don’t or
Mrs. Has That Thing I Need, just think about the greedy feeling that’s
Lurking in the darkness, in the place where people’s hearts should be,
The creeping little devil that just tells you that it “should have been you” when it “wasn’t”
You

Structure crumbling from within;
Building what can now begin.

Light bends. Hope it never breaks.
Time mends. Hope that it's not fake.

"Nothing is invincible" seems to be a principle.
Dying is a pinnacle, living is equivocal.
Nothing can't be anything, many things are everything, ground it in the glimpse of it, even if you wince a bit: Know you'll grow.
