lyrics

THUMBS OUT

i'm on the edge of here and nowhere
just keepin' down the line, keepin' down the line
this baker's bread, we've all been shown there
to break from time to time, break from time to time

this tiny speck of a moment captured
shattered on the deck with all the ghosts and the rapture
there's something in my eyes and i can feel it happen, no?

i closed my eyes and felt the wind blow me
further down the line, further down the line
all the phases of my mind below me
they gather all the time, they gather all the time

like photographs of a hidden story
in the middle of a whirlwind flash before me
there's something on my mind and i can feel it happen, no?

this is the time
i'll never walk away
flashing these signs
of all the coming days
this is the time
i'll ever walk away
no way

out in the wind, i can feel my soul
moving further down the line, further down the line
somewhere it ends, am i feeling whole yet?
i'm feeling mighty fine, i'm feeling mighty fine

for the time, there's nothing else for certain
til it's curtains for the ones who left without a word
there's something in the wind and i can feel it happen, no?

this is the time
i'll never walk away
flashing these signs
of all the coming days
this is the time
i'll ever walk away
no way
this is the time
i'll ever walk away
into the light
of all i need to say
this is the time
i'll never walk away
no way

under this skin, there's a garden growing
further down the line, further down the line
it can't be seen but still it's all i know
so i'll just keep on down the line, keep on down the line
and think about the scenes that keep me sane
there's no time to wonder why, no time to wonder why
it satisfies my soul to keep the wind and rain
it's so comforting sometimes, so comforting sometimes

i'll wrap it up just like a blanket
thank the wind and rain for coming
it's been good to crank it up
there's something up ahead and i can feel it happen, no?

this is the time
we'll never walk away
flashing these signs
of all the coming days
this is the time
we'll ever walk away
no way
this is the time
we'll ever walk away
into the light
of what we need to say
this is the time
we'll never walk away
no way
