Lyrics
Desperate Living
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A play folds out on the forest floor
I bought a one way ticket
Back to july
Quantum
Theory
Breathless
Yet...
Discorporate.
We are alive
We are hostages
Held for ransom
By a gentleman ghost
We are alive
Living day to day
Building bridges
And statues
If i read the whole book
What would i say?
Now there's no mystery
Just a bunch of pages
Crumpled yesterdays
..and i'm not so
Sure we are
Together on this
Anymore
It's like..
Like nothing matters
Oh, but it does
Woefully
At peace
We start to eat the seeds
Hungry enough to eat tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Listen breakers
And listen bucks
These are the one-rail hooks
You're looking through garbage
The wealth and filth..
Of our dreams.
