lyrics

Watch it unfurl
What do you say?
Rushing blue waves

Look back toward a time
Words always trite
Wasn't it a pain for men unraveled at night?

Autumn haze and soft light prying through a floor down to a
Dark maelstrom of bloated flesh
Gilded waves and vultures flying

A black rider came

And your life
Lived just to unwind
Just to unwind
Pale face, dry eyes
With your pride
I knew it'd end
Down in the dirt
And not by my side

(The waves crash, guess who I saw alive)
Tired of talk about himself
He wants to roll out like a radiant low tide [says]
What you said before, it's not me, I work hard to stay [How was Dad set up? Sister, don't lie, I wanna...]
Busy
Said we're onto something, can't live in the city, orange sky and dead
[Drag you out, eat you up, saw your eyes, a candid]
[Bluff] Eyes on the freeway [And what a shame, the kids don't care to lay blame]
And what a shame, the kids don't care to lay blame [Tell me why you're crying, praying and revealing, ashen concrete baking, weeds all pale and breaking]
That's my brother smiling, he don't care bout lying, while we're in the
City
