Protest The Hero - Palms Read
As often as always evolution is crawling from the sea
Alive with urgency like suicide like suicide
Convinced the grass is greener on dry earth
The march of serrated utterance like a soft cough
Muffled murmur sneaking through the lecture hall
The crawl across the island the sound of waves
Embodied water sprouting legs as loud as gallop
All the young people who took a leap without faith into a riverbed
That drowns about as much as it saves
Cuffing down on ground against the cries of gravity
Belly up half buried in the sand
Extend a hand to the smallness of death
Understand that only dying is this colossal
Creation shedding skin to find a perfect equilibrium like fossils
All the young people who took a leap of no faith
All the young cowards acting out
All the young cowards acting out for the brave forever hurled
Into the waters of their indifferent graves
For a million years raise your glass
We will never answer where we came from
For a million years raise your glass in cheers
We will never answer where we came from only how we got
For a million years raise your glass
We will never answer where we came from
For a million years raise your glass
only how we got here
Two minutes and then the lads are in for a surprise
Alive with urgency like suicide like suicide
Convinced the grass is greener on dry earth
The march of serrated utterance like a soft cough
Muffled murmur sneaking through the lecture hall
The crawl across the island the sound of waves
Embodied water sprouting legs as loud as gallop
All the young people who took a leap without faith into a riverbed
That drowns about as much as it saves
Cuffing down on ground against the cries of gravity
Belly up half buried in the sand
