Arms Like Boulders

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.

And so now

Now that you realized that planets are spheres

With weight? on the inside

And your god is only a catapult waiting for the right time to let you go

Into the unknown

Just to watch you hold your breath

Yeah and surrender your fortress

And your thoughts will tumble like rocks do

Over the valleys of factory oceans

The Turkish carpets are flapping as the wind

Drops you down to the surface

Yeah you're looking for the sweethearts

And you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun

And in your world, the strong survive

But I won't take my body down

Let me tell you

Your arms are like boulders

And your shoulders are cliffs

But your head keeps rolling off

And your spine it is weak from the weights on your shoulders

And from difference of opinion

There is a song you hear on the radio

It's a funeral march so you change the channel

But it's all you hear as you're driving up the 101 from Mexico to California

There's no snow when you're looking for your sweethearts

Yeah there's no snow when you're looking for your answers

And you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun

And in your world the strong survive

But I won't take my body down

And by the time they get your letter of explanation

You'll be dead and gone

Barking up a new tree

And eyeing up some new friends scaring off the families while tidying up your loose ends

Chasing squirrels around your property

Making sure that they know that this is your kingdom

And nothing will stop it

Yeah nothing will stop it

If nothing will stop it

Yeah nothing will stop it

And you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun

And in your world the strong survive

But won't you lay your body down

Yes and now, now's the time to wrap your ears around the sound

Of your train coming round

You'll have to lay everything down
