lyrics

I wake and miss the monsters in my dreams
I join the clouds in my bitter grey fleece
And manage to construct a half-working zombie brain
Behind the bar in my green apron
He walks in with the new horse he's won
Post-parade my fake smile's turned debonair

Oh, I’d like to think my hand would rise
Through this nonsense, touch a bit of sky
And I am alone
The island will start here

That first breeze is so quiet when I
Let go of my hands on my bike
I start off downhill I for-
Get where I am and where I'm going
Life goes on and takes it's course
And of course it starts all over

Got a drink forced out by my sister
She asks why I said I never miss her
How can I when she posts her whole life on the web?
What she ate? Oh it was sushi Sunday
Party pics with every face the same
It's a porn of haircuts, bored sighs, and filing taxes

While past the glass two queens pull close
The kind of close like I've never known
And I am alone
The island starts here
