lyrics

we arrive midscene
desperate fists grabbing the mist of dreams
the day breaks loudly all around me
what could that be?

new light pours in
piling up against itself across my floor
and then a thought I thought I'd outrun
comes waving its semaphore

it says:
"wake up and see
the life you should lead's behind you now."

wool socks pulled high
one full thermos and two souls to fortify
the echo of unanswered questions
pioneers of the human mind

not too far now
we crest a hill, mark a hard-won mile down
against the endless sky
it's been sung before
but if I had to die tonight...

...I'd rather wait here and see
the way things could be if we pressed on

the aching in my chest
against all reason was for the best
now sleeping soundly and dreaming proudly
of what may come next
