lyrics
in the red.
so many people so much time so many words so many rhymes, and i don't know if tonight the moon could set the oceans right so i called upon a man to lend all available hands, this was my biggest plan to date, an ambitious site to excavate, but how could i succeed in my part to play when i don't even know my own strengths? i'll be drowning in the earth this birth that happened by mistake, well, a runt's not meant to make it this far beyond his expiration date, and i truly wish we could return to the life we thought we could create, but there's some things that you can't escape, there's some things that you can't escape,there's some things you can make, but can't stop from breaking down. but if you go and i don't follow don't turn around just keep your eyes ahead and keep on till your feet leave the ground...let's throw in a harem and a sheik for just some random imagery and a hot blistering sun evaporates the camel's humps, and the heat steals water, kills the trees, that gives the air we try to breath, and with bloody dry cracked lips we speak of beauty no one else can see, a mirage of the sea, but sandstorms come and bury tales like these. if we could turn back time, make all wrongs to right, this world would be a different place, no place that i would want to stay, if i could not make mistakes...because beauty comes for free but we hide it underneath, the sheets we sleep at night where dreams and tears both sympathize for fears we realize then hide, we want to act but can't decide, so we never create meaning, we're afraid to pay the price, but the mistakes we make, are the true costs of living this life...so break me down, break me down, break me down to the sum of my smallest parts so that when i rebuild myself, at least then i'll have somewhere to start.
