I’ve been working on some random stuff here and there and this is one of those things. I actually have a full group of lyrics finished and ready to go, so I’m hoping to release them next month too. More news on that soon though. For now, here’s the current version of some lyrics I wrote afterwards… not sure where they’ll end up (if anywhere else at all.)
We shut our eyes so tight
Though no one sleeps at night
Roaming like some dinosaurs
Flattened as the meteors arrive
It’s getting hard to think
So now we’re on the brink
Latching on like parasites
Coming back to life on puppet strings
There’s a penny for each thought that defines you
Split apart but it isn’t enough
Pretty soon you’ll learn the currency blinds you
When the jig is up, up, up, up
The jig is up, up, up, up
We hide our deepest fears
Though no one counts the years
Doubling back to reconvene
Ambushed as the rest proceed from here
It’s getting hard to speak
So now we’ve claimed defeat
Blowing out like dying stars
Moving fast to part with our beliefs
There’s a penny for each thought that defines you
Split apart but it isn’t enough
Pretty soon you’ll learn the currency blinds you
When the jig is up, up, up, up
The jig is up, up, up, up
With every leaf on fire
We’ve found ourselves inspired, but ain’t it strange?
Well now it’s getting cold
The frost is taking hold… of all that still remains
It still remains
We shut our eyes so tight
Though no one sleeps at night
Roaming like some dinosaurs
Flattened as the meteors arrive
There’s a penny for each thought that defines you
Split apart but it isn’t enough
Pretty soon you’ll learn the currency blinds you
When the jig is up, up, up, up
The jig is up, up, up, up
The jig is up, up, up, up
The jig is up, up, up, up
