[Listener - Manhattan Projects lyrics]
Is everything I wish I could
But the thoughts get lost
And I think I’m lost for good
I’m learning to paint small
But, I have to be still and that one shines
But still
There I go again painting with my ideas
A little strokes, a little tears
I can’t stop these shaky hands
From mixing everything up and I wonder
But what’s really being lost enough?
Not all who wonder are lost in thought
Not all who give live all they’ve got
Like a thousand suns bursting at once
Are only the spark of the mightiest one
But that doesn’t stop the
Planets from spinning
Month after heavy month
Into years that I forget
Memories and friends years I get to live
Lucky and try to mend
Crossing over back again over and back again
With every line trying to dig in
Crossing over and back again
I am become the destroyer of worlds
And when the bomb drops my heart drops too
And doubt sets in please, hope begin
Make a way
Make it calm for everything that flies inside
The sky? This is it?
But everyone can see this no one owns it
But we all do until we’re all satisfied
Shaky knees, shaky thoughts
Shaky near the business end
Where I see it all get lost
The things I made become
The things I’ve forgot
This is what you wanted me to build
Or at least, that’s what I thought
In battle, in the forest
At the top in the mountains
On the dark great sea
In the midst of javelins and arrows
In sleep, in confusion
In the depths of shame
The good that we’ve done before defends us
Even poor little us
