Earthtones Songtext

von No Trigger

Strained eyes toward infinite night skies
Hemlocks, sunsets through white pines,
Roadmaps and distant state lines
It only took one trip to understand
The dam is cracked with no room to expand and seats are filling up
Quick inside. from coast to coast
Wrapped up in all these earth tones
Wrapped up and warm in earth songs
Its one small step
Another step for man and i’m sick of getting stepped on
Eyes fixed on the prize, generations side by side
They’re marching through the trees, blinded by reality
Status: endangered and the species consists of me
Am I the only living exception with vision un-obscured and clear?
Jump up, get down, hypothesize, cut the ties, cross the lines
Re-posses everybody’s life. am I the only fucking exception?
And this disease will bring the planet to its knees
No self-defense left to dispense on kings, citizens
And queens. is it too late to start pretending?
Throw it in reverse and skip the ending?
No, its on the way, its on the way, its on the way, its on the way
I’m reminded every single day. from coast to coast
Wrapped up in all these earth tones
Wrapped up and warm in earth songs
Homogenize the countryside
Big city lights and small town pride
An orb of water and life drained from the outside
It has begun. i’m the only one touched by the setting sun
It has begun
