lyrics

As we walk along the shoreline just at dusk
The shadow of an arrow falls on us
I resist you, but your heart is in the right
We were lovers in another frame of mind
We are looking at ourselves through a wax lens
That are humbly enforcing our amends
I've got a brother somewhere in the night
We is wading through the river to the light

Hell fire running through the open beaches
Surf boards draining denim leaving wilted leaches
High up on a pedestal the empty preaches
Hark, away
Up all night staring at the ink soaked page
A ladder reaching upwards to a muddy haze
Of minds that just emptied and floated away
Left us dishonest and vague

The time goes when you're doing nothing

With your camera through intoxicating light
Trying to trap the world inside your gaze
We reclaimed some of ourselves from all the blaze
That meanders through our minds on colder days
With tunnel vision when you run towards the soul
Of whatever imaginary you may know

Plot's unfolding in the lonely eve
Perfect nights bled away like ink
Dishes rotting in the babbling sink
Run away
Wash your mouth out until the words dissolve
Scream and kick and fight until the lightning stops
Think in third person until your eyes get gone
Dream, dream on

The time goes when you're doing nothing
