lyrics
For the snakes and feeling lost, moment to moment, we sway in trees. I keep alone by my side while this city holds my eyes. To display your colder image, I told the world of your travels. Eleven years, Eleven days and not a crack. Not a single goddamn crack...
So, I'll carry on. Carry on.
Now, you'll never leave me begging for a map or a means to find my direction. You'll have to catch me first.
Again? Are you kidding me?
I watched you separate
the sky from my dreams
and yet I seemed better intact with
you near.
:)
We wait atop the summit for your return. It seems the dawn that has you has set the trail behind you on fire. Who says I have to have feelings as I carry the clothes on my back? I am not above explaining. I am just inhuman. Don't let the walls you have up fool you. We will just see through them. A sudden change in altitude gives you all the attitude. You're taking this to the head while I am not offended. I AM NOT!!
Quit telling me I am
When I am not.
I AM NOT
Quit telling me I am
When I am not.
You know just what to say to keep me moving straight ahead.
Know I never heard a word of what you said. I had this path set in my head where I'd never have to spend another night alone in bed until I learned he who has the upper hand is he who better stands letting go. Thought you should know that you're just fulfilling plans of a strange and somber life spent alone.
Alright. I'm done.
Quit telling me I'm done.
So, I'll carry on. Carry on.
Now, you'll never leave me begging for a map or a means to find my direction. You'll have to catch me first.
Again? Are you kidding me?
I watched you separate
the sky from my dreams
and yet I seemed better intact with
you near.

Years later I still get the same excitement listening to the album as I did for the first time seeing them live in Athens, GA opening for Caspian. You all made a lasting impression no doubt! So many words of praise... unique, solid, technical, complex, musical, passionate, poetic... This is a top tier album and group!
