lyrics

Perished in the daystar and plastered with paste
Here in this village where the days are a waste
Cipher toils and cipher grays
Every last vision is a caste away
Every last faith has faded and died
Alongside the griffons are seeking a guide
There’s talk of an idol arriving by plane
With purified lights leading the way

Bring on the sun
Bring on the birds
Under the radar where mum is the word
Superimposed and reaching for air
There, where all are unaware

Merely a mellow, waning high
Floats by the town as a weather spy

If, if there’s a way
If there’s a day
If there’s a dunce
And the dunce has a say
But don’t, don’t be unnerved
You can’t rule the birds
You can’t rule the stars
‘Cuz the stars rule your world

Bring on the sun
Bring on the birds
Under the radar where mum is the word
Superimposed and reaching for air
There , where all are unaware

Merely a mellow, waning high
Floats by the town as a weather spy

There’s talk of an idol arriving by plane
To move with the glow of the Milky Way

The sound embraces with a clinched smile, and then stumbles and occasionally falls only to somehow prop itself back up for another round. ... more
