James Howard - A Really Long Song Called Life

from RAINN Benefit Comp by Various

/

lyrics

While I watched as the sunrise filled every hole, it had covered the ocean in violet and gold, came on out of its covers and reached out its hand, warmed up every airwave, and rock in the sand.  I was nothing but anxious and scared half to death.  I wished nothing had stayed so clear in my head.  I felt sick, frozen, alone and confused.  There was such beauty in me losing you.  The joy had departed from everything, and left but a glimpse of the person you see.

"If you're waiting for me.  I haven't thought it all out but I'll try" "let's just say that we get somewhere far, somethings dragging you down and I want no part" "So we divide the melody, and rip apart harmony.  Unscrew hinges on ourselves till we shake, watched disaster unfold in our wake.  I want to hold the whole concept, but I'm not in the plan.  so, you go, you go, you go, you go, you go cause I can't.  you go, you go, you go, you go, you go cause I can't.  

The boats and the birds started going their ways, passing each other off as they began their day.  now the whole coast was dancing so off of the beat, and the birds and the horns started singing in key.  Dreamt up castles, surrounded by moats at our knees. Yet the water tried running right off of the beach.

"If you're waiting for me.  I haven't thought it all out but I'll try" "let's just say that we get somewhere far, somethings dragging you down and I want no part" "So we divide the melody, and rip apart harmony.  Unscrew hinges on ourselves till we shake, watched disaster unfold in our wake.  I want to hold the whole concept, but I'm not in the plan.  so, you go, you go, you go, you go, you go cause I can't.

While I watched as the ocean swallowed the sun, it had drowned out the color and blacked out my lungs. We know the storm isn't coming, It was a lie they had told,  but we all wait by the ocean watch and grow old.
