Hangers On

(album: 7.3 - 2023)

Last chance to ask permission
If you should dare
Find or create division
So unaware
Of what we have become

We swore we'd never give in
And would not scare
In this little world we live in
An unlikely pair
Is never just for fun

Everybody else knows what it is
You never seem to see things coming
Everybody else got it figured out
They're heading for the doorway, running
Everybody else tells it like it is
You've always been the least forthcoming
Everybody else gonna make it out
I never could have seen this coming

Those sins are every mission
Or so they've said
There's still an inquisition
It's in your head
It's only just begun

Carnations on the pathway
And poppies red
These steps toward the cascade
Just like you said
For some it's just for fun

Everybody else knows what it is
You never seem to see things coming
Everybody else got it figured out
They're heading for the doorway, running
Everybody else tells it like it is
You've always been the least forthcoming
Everybody else gonna make it out
I never could have seen this coming

You oughtta face
You're gonna need a place to stay
You oughtta face
You're gonna turn and face the day
You can't replace
And we're gonna leave you anyway

Everybody else got it figured out
You never could've seen this coming
Everybody else gonna make it out
You're gonna be the last one running

Everybody else knows what it is
You never seem to see things coming
Everybody else got it figured out
They're heading for the doorway, running
Everybody else tells it like it is
You've always been the least forthcoming
Everybody else gonna make it out
I never could have seen this coming
