lyrics

when i was kid i always dreamt that someday i would grow up and dig up bones i would unearth dinosaurs and ancient plants and give them a new home maybe in that way they could continue being known and understood and everything buried in the past could wake again and do some good but when you get older you realize maybe that time will always be unkind ripping at all the lovely and memories while you spin on a dime maybe the buried things should stay that way and rest for all of the new time but what kind lesson would you learn when all of your past erodes to slime

so what do you do when all the thoughts you have just suddenly explode and all of your secret selfs leak out of the corners of your nose you look back to when you were a kid for a little meaning in the shit get a little marker and use the tip to color the page until it rips

trying hard to understand the pay offs and the proposals and why and what do they matter in the clouds or sleeping under a blue sky i could count all the satellites up there i could put some new flowers in my hair i could give something new a try i could find a new way to spend my time
