Wringing It Out

from Gung Ho! (fdm135) by Chris Anderson

/

lyrics

a mirror in the middle of the frame
takes a number in the slow lane, tricks on the fly
like a remnant of the last train
rolled into the dungeon of the mist beyond
the shadow of doubt

wringing it out

a solider at the edge of what's beyond
thinks about the grey until he's gone
into the patterns of
movement on the plains of all time
sings just like an angel
in a choir made of muses and mimes

wringing it out

a shadow on the fringes of the void
dances like a butterfly
destroys the last remains of what it seems
to light the fire for the steam
will build you like a mountain
just to dissipate and leave in between
the golden moments and shade
put it in your pocket
til they pack you up and send you away
that's what they all say

wringing it out
