lyrics

Chorus
We watch the days fly by
then we open up our eyes
and we look up at the sky
see the Sunday sunrise
We watch the nights go by
then we open up our eyes
and we look up at the sky
See the Sunday sunrise

It’s Sunday morning
And I’m barely yawning
So I Kick off the sheets
And let the light peek in
Lifes uncertain and fleeting
We hear of people leaving
So we reach in seeking deeper meaning
Reading up on bereavement,
The rule of threes,
Pleading with the sky and sea
Waiting to hear it speaking
Please keep the peace
While you keep on dreaming
this ain’t the first time you’ve had your foot out the door
But it’s the first time you’ve pleaded for more
Reason to stay than before
And I Promise to make sure those reasons are pure
Cuz when you gave the ultimatum
I think you thought i couldn’t brave this
That was a lame trick
My hearts your playground
And you chose to pave it
So we Tear the world down for just a minute of power,
For Iconic images of rifles and flowers,
Umbrellas pumped open ready for showers
Standing under these crumbling towers
We stare at the rubble counting the hours...
and Counting the cowards
While they tally us
We rally up
things are bad enough
We live on apathy
What is happening
Does anyone know
How to live happily
anymore
I’m getting bored
Of Heavy storms
I’m not ready for
Our luck to run
On pennied floors
Got a penny slipper
6 pence none the richer
to cure the cancer makes us sicker
And we’re wishing on slimmer figures
And bigger figures counting bits of silver
And diamonds you could kill for
Blood we can’t ignore
I don’t pray but I will before

Chorus
We watch the days fly by
then we open up our eyes
and we look up at the sky
see the Sunday sunrise
We watch the nights go by
then we open up our eyes
and we look up at the sky
See the Sunday sunrise

Open up our eyes,
And up our mouths
we shout for more
Till we pass out
Or till we
get our fill,
To get a thrill
I’m sure there’s a pill
For developing skills
Who can build
Who can Practice
Whose got Patience
Patience is lacking
Patients in slack package their assets
In baggage
In the background standing
We’re preparing for a shaky landing
could take my hand and
Hope for a grander plan
Or less damaged planet
For my wife
For my daughter
For all us lambs being slammed into slaughter
Of all the futures I done thought of
Any warranty’s I’d have bought em
To save us all until autumn
When the leaves change color
When the wind blows open the shutters
My words are over flowing the gutters
Write it out and hope I don’t stutter
I’m a Fighter now and always a lover
Run for the rivers for real it’s like a duck and cover
