The afternoon doesn't take half as long as the mornin' But the dawn is getting anxious, and the dawn is gettin' horny There's a Dandelion growin' from the tips of my fingers And it's bothersome to many but I let it tell a story While the world is overflowing with weeds and weed killers I was raised in the concrete, and I'll die by the gutter My mother felt the terror when she cast me to the wind Singing life will find a way, Darlin', life will find a way Way back 'Neath the trees I felt a violent tremblin' in my knees That time We killed Has never ever sat right with me Now the evening doesn't take half as long as the mornin' With the dirty breakfast dishes and the rehydrated coffee There's a tension in the water so we take another breath Disregard our dreams as fictions or a loose feeling of death There's a window to the stars ensures that everyone comes home There are monsters in the dark ensures we'll never feel alone But you can take me by the hand, and we take this hand of god Singing life will find a way, Darlin', life will find a way Way back 'Neath the trees I felt a violent tremblin' in my knees That time We killed Has never ever sat right with me The sun shine's hard But she gets insecure around the other stars So we buried her in the sand To try to prove the timelessness of a martyr's art And the relentless of a modern heart But then the time flew by The audacity of man opened the sky There were prayers sent up But we couldn't hear no matter how we tried No matter how we tried we couldn't hear The midnight doesn't take half as long as the mornin' But these days it's hard to tell which one's comin' which one's going Seven billion little heartbeats I must be part of the crowd I've never felt like one of them and anyway I'm losin' count You folded all my failing organs to the place where no one sleeps There's some work yet left to do and it's clear I'm getting weak And the Dandelion's wilting and the monster's in a mood But with your steady little hands the only way I'm getting through Way back 'Neath the trees I felt a violent tremblin' in my knees That time We killed Has never ever sat right with me The sun shine's hard But she gets insecure around the other stars So we buried her in the sand We had to bury her in the sand
