Constellations
(专辑: A Flash Flood Of Colour - 2012)
Packing the
last few shirts into a
bloated suitcase Last glimpse of comfort and the
ticking clock face I
swear those hands move faster everyday I'm more confused than ever but I
don't beg or pray 'Cause the
sparkling light from the
morning sun Is all we should need to feel one I
reach the
station with just minutes to spare Glance at my watch, time's going faster these days, I
swear Eyes focus up now to the
train timetable board There's only two platforms to be explored And it's then that I
admit it to myself That I
am lost, so lost, but you're the
constellations that guide me There's a
train at twelve, destination "Disaster" It's running on time as time runs faster On platform two, it's destination "Sustainability" It's delayed though, it was supposed to arrive at 11:50 Platform one, it says "Stand behind the
yellow line" (That I
am lost, so lost, but you're the
constellations) But I
sit on the
platform edge and just gaze at the
time (That guide me) My mind wanders back to our oblivious existence I'm all choked up now with the
threat of distance As the
train bound for "Disaster" chokes up to the
station I
don't board it 'cause I
decide that it's the
wrong destination But the
train bound for "Sustainability" is nowhere to be seen And I'm lost, so lost Where are the
constellations that guide me? And then I
realize that We need to use our own two feet to walk these tracks And we have to squad up and we have to watch each other's backs With forgiveness as our torch, and imagination our sword We'll untie the
ropes of hate and slash open the
minds of the
bored And we'll start a
world so equal and free Every inch of this Earth is yours, all the
land and all the
sea Imagine no restrictions, but the
climate and the
weather Then we can explore space together forever (And I
am lost, so lost, you are the
constellations) [5x]
