Protest The Hero - Palms Reads lyrics

As afraid as always
Evolution is crawling from the sea
Alive with urgency like suicide, like suicide
Convinced the grass is greener on dry earth

The march of serrated utterance like
A soft cough muffled murmur
Sneaking through the lecture hall
The crawl across the island
The sound of wave's embodied water sprouting
Legs as loud as a gallop
Cuffing down on ground against
The cries of gravity

All the young people who took
A leap without faith
Into a riverbed that drowns about
As much as it saves
All the young cowards acting out
For the brave forever hurled
Into the waters of their indifferent graves

Belly-up, half buried in the sand
Extend a hand to the smallness of death
Understand that only dying is this colossal
Creation shedding skin to find a
Perfect equilibrium like fossils
For a million years
Raise your glass in cheers
We will never answer where we came
From only how we got here
