lyrics

Over- and underwhelmed by
stars in their own hidden daylight
keeping the synnergy while
you're overwhelming me

Robins are calling me so
I'll open up this old window
Songs for my humbled outside
linger and mark where my youth died

On the wall

I'm on the wall
and I dropped the ball

Tinder and kindling wood burns
quick as the tide of the day turns
somewhere; it's not so warm now
but that's how the sun keeps its head down

CHORUS

Slipping on rocks in rivers
waters grow deeper and shiver
as if the depths they go nowhere
and force me ashore with a dead dare

Darwin is haunting me here
guarding his heart from his last fear
X marks the spot while I tremble
and note all the stones I resemble

CHORUS
