Your Halcyon Days

from 27x2 by Cosmic Bull

/

about

First order of business for the leader to his flock: point out how they profess to doing good works without really doing anything...

lyrics

Dutifully bound in your cage with a view
Everyone you know is up there with you
Smoke from the street
Flashes under your feet
"Aw - what do they want?" calls the man from the bar
He don't even wanna know who they are
It'll be a cold night
Colder still to see their plight

You're rapt with attention but
All wrapped up in your feelings
You coulda said some more
You coulda done anything
Now there's two ways to go in your halcyon days
These elevators all move both ways
Here they come now
What kind of song will you sing?

You could leave now and give up what you had
Better still you could understand how it's bad
Get you better health
Somewhere outside yourself
Ah, but deep down you know you would never be here
If for one second you'd let 'em get near
It's still a cold night
You still wish away their plight
Whoah - and sight

You're rapt with attention but
All wrapped up in your feelings
You coulda said some more
You coulda done anything
Now there's two ways to go in your halcyon days
These elevators all move both ways
Here they come now
What kind of song will you sing?
