lyrics
One of these days the union
Of all these little humans
Will fall into the open wound
Of endless tragedy
Dissolving into nowhere
We only have opinions
And we describe them all at once
In perfect harmony
Sunlight is free
But only if you all agree
To leave the biggest piece for me
And slowly leave the room
I had a dream that you left
Only in your sundress
While the winter winds swept
Frozen ice around your feet
And I was holding our son
Who doesn't have opinions
And leapt into the ocean
Where you were waiting underneath
And from your lips a song grew
That only time is untrue
And all the folks that we knew
Filled the beach with harmony
This time won't you
Do this thing that I ask of you
And dig a hole where your garden grew
Till your 6 feet underneath
It's only fair that you know
We must decide where you go
Please open wide and raise your tongue
While we shine a light to see
All of the things you're hiding
The people you confide in
And all the things conspiring in that
Space between your cheeks
Sunlight won't do
If it chooses to shine on you
It's only because I asked it to
Reflect it onto me
One of these days the union
Of all these tiny humans
Will Sleep under the ocean
With the nattering of teeth
And up above in heaven
They've built my bed to lie in
And I will rest there peacefully
While you crumble underneath
Of all these little humans
Will fall into the open wound
Of endless tragedy
Dissolving into nowhere
We only have opinions
And we describe them all at once
In perfect harmony
Sunlight is free
But only if you all agree
To leave the biggest piece for me
And slowly leave the room
I had a dream that you left
Only in your sundress
While the winter winds swept
Frozen ice around your feet
And I was holding our son
Who doesn't have opinions
And leapt into the ocean
Where you were waiting underneath
And from your lips a song grew
That only time is untrue
And all the folks that we knew
Filled the beach with harmony
This time won't you
Do this thing that I ask of you
And dig a hole where your garden grew
Till your 6 feet underneath
It's only fair that you know
We must decide where you go
Please open wide and raise your tongue
While we shine a light to see
All of the things you're hiding
The people you confide in
And all the things conspiring in that
Space between your cheeks
Sunlight won't do
If it chooses to shine on you
It's only because I asked it to
Reflect it onto me
One of these days the union
Of all these tiny humans
Will Sleep under the ocean
With the nattering of teeth
And up above in heaven
They've built my bed to lie in
And I will rest there peacefully
While you crumble underneath

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
