steal each tick tock
making some new playlists and being reminded of some awesome songs…this one’s thrice “between the end and where we lie”. i’ve narrowed my running playlist down to just shy of 300 songs..you know, just the ones i really like. also, i wonder if i hold some kind of record for being the mac owner who holds out longest before opening itunes on their mac? had the laptop for just shy of 10 months and opened itunes for the first time today. ugh…itunes.
Is this everything? I’ve dreamed of so much more between the end and where we lie.
here all our hopes and dreams are scavenged from the floor and fed into machines that feed on vacant eyes
all of my dreams, always find me far beyond these fake fluorescent skies
I know there must be something more, if I could only find the door then I could free myself and see the world outsidewhere daylight breaks on you and shines into the grey that sleeps beneath your skull
daylight breaks on you and burns away the grey that suffocates your soulfor now I hold a key, and though I may be lost I know that I will find my way
I search endlessly but every time I’ve thought that I was near the smoke and mirrors lead me astray
see the pit boss, steal each tick tock; time it seems will suffer at our hands
I look for exits in the haze, the dense electric twilight maze, I’ve heard that there is one that leads to sunlit landswhere daylight breaks on you and shines into the grey that sleeps beneath your skull
daylight breaks on you and burns away the grey that suffocates your souldaylight, they tell me that it’s just a myth, they try to betray you with a kiss
daylight, they tell me that it can’t exist, they might never know just what they missed asdaylight pours fire into my grey eyes, pours grace into my grey life
breaks in and lights the way I can’t live without the day
