Let Live & Let Ghosts
A Matter of Time
A shelter just to be sure and after rearranging the furniture you slept alone.
You awoke to find the war was finally done.
You rubbed your eyes and squinted at the Sun, which was
Brighter and hotter and better lit up
the Earth like a birthday cake.
You were amazed you were still living
to celebrate this new beginning where
the grass is a little greener,
and the Earth is a little bigger.
The trees are a little taller too.
The air that's a little cleaner and suddenly...
Voices rang out from the clouds, bursting out in song, speakers pumping loud.
Keep on crying just to stop the water rise into your brain composed of dirt.
And keep on pissing, to keep on drinking, and keep on eating, to keep on shitting.
Time will wear you down.
You clap your hands and sigh.
You were amazed that you survived.
And the air that you were breathing gave you a supernatural feeling again.
The sound of your heart beating time with the rhythm of your breathing mixed with
the speed of the Earth spinning was precisely the same speed as earthquakes.
Building beneath your feet, a-waving strangers that you meet.
You can see the collision of a hurricane and the suicidal plane, oh god.
It's only a matter of time (x4) until suddenly...
A voice will ring out from the clouds, bursting out in song, speakers pumping loud.
Keep on crying just to stop the water rise into your brain composed of dirt.
And keep on pissing, to keep on drinking, and keep on eating, to keep on shitting.
Time will wear you down.
[Instrumental]
Keep on crying just to stop the water rise into your brain composed of dirt.
And keep on pissing, to keep on drinking, and keep on eating, to keep on shitting.
Time will wear you down.
Keep on crying just to stop the water rise into your brain composed of dirt.
(And keep on pissing, to keep on drinking, and keep on eating, to keep on shitting.)
And keep on pissing, to keep on drinking, and keep on eating, to keep on shitting. (Keep on crying just to stop the water rise into your brain composed of dirt.)
Time will wear you down.
It's only a matter of time. (It's only a matter of time.)
It's only a matter of time. (It's only a matter of time.)
It's only a matter of time. (It's only a matter of time.)
It's only a matter of time.
(Haha!)
