lyrics

Have you ever thought around
When what's lost cannot be found
That what tethers you to the ground
Is your heart making a sound?

It won't want to frighten with a song
Listening to it doesn't take so long

Did you whisper hello
In wind patterns that blew my way?
Was the knowing in a smile
That you wore with no intention to stay?

I don't fault you anything tomorrow or today
It wasn't long ago but feels that way
On top of things unfortunate said what can I say?

Plant the seed and run away
Until you can't run no more
Til you're happy not just Lucky
Each and every day

No connection missed
When the planets nod and burn up in flames
No recreational bliss prepared me for your kiss

I believe in someone I don't know
I was cautioned and ignored it knew how it'd go
Now these things replay in a ripple pattern'd ping-pong show
Each in their own metamorphosis I suppose
I strangled it and threw it in the road like a scarecrow
To burn effigistic-ally with a blowtorch blow
The clown's outside the windowsill
Go on ahead without me, don't think I'll go
Your breath on my face was a vapor yarn-spun echo
Haunting premonitions that still grow
Feeling like Lon Chaney making a toast to the dead in a mask
As the rising moon glows

So thanks for being a friend
Before inflamed strains felt pretend
I'm too poor for your arms
I ignored but heard the alarms

Retell promote a story as you may
You're not the only one who was and is afraid
Plant the seed and run away
Until them paths cross again someday
