Mimicking Birds - Acting Your Age lyrics
[Mimicking Birds - Acting Your Age lyrics]
A light dome glowing from the
Homes on the coast
Somehow each one makes their way back to it
And every year the reservoir
Fills up with fluid
Pathways, holes, and cords connect everyone
To each pair of lungs inflating under the sun
Warm eras shift back into ice ages
I go extinct and retrogress to simpler phases
With south being below us
Now up are mountains moons, and clouds
Someday maybe act your age
Stand up straight
Know where and walk that way
A low tide exposes what hides in a high tide
For every right a wrong is
Right on the other side
Corn fields turn beige and into mazes
Planetary systems go through certain phases
First thing to slither up on land was a fish
Walked to the forest to build cities with it
Retire in it's incessant empire
Make and fight fires
Through trees weave wires
Into your house lies but just your
Mind mirroring in a lake like
High lake pines some other day
Maybe feel your age lay down in a grave know
'where' and step that way
Know 'when' and catch that wave
Know 'why' so lie awake
South being below us, now up are mountains
Moons, and clouds someday maybe act your age
Stand up straight
Know where and walk that way
