right time, right place, intuition with a hard work ethic.
we're daydream believers.
this is a flood through a band
crawling up out of the streets
to let the cycle repeat
and make this life more than just
whatever we thought it was.
no ones gonna stand up for you if you can't stand for yourself.
you make me remember everything.
you make me remember everything.
too much is just what we know what to do with.
we've got to discover, recover the things we'll never know.
too much is just what we know what to do with.
we've got to discover, recover the things we'll never know.
we're digging through the dirt to find the sun.

making her way downtown to drugstar city
my deathwish party angel
chasing the sun since she learned to run
fearless eyes, atomic hips
no time to give a shit about the politics
shes got a gun to your head as she pulls back the hammer
don't give up, don't die, it'll be alright
the darkest hours hit before the best songs of your life
don't give up, don't die, it'll be alright
give her all the soul you've got before you die
my smokestack lungs still wait for you
down this city avenue
my intellect went down with the first hit
so much for so clever
i sold my way from place to place
on motorbikes, big rigs, and boats
through every state of land and mind and sea
i know its now or never
so don't give up, don't die, it'll be alright
the darkest hours hit before the best songs of your life
don't give up, don't die, it'll be alright
give her all the soul you've got before you die
looking in the rearview mirror at drugstar city
my deathwish party angel
has blood on her chest as she grinds through the gears
fearless eyes, atomic hips
no time to give a shit about the government
shes got two headlights and two lips to make it right

will you take me down to the southside
to pickup some landing gear
i've got a six pack and the forecast calls for snow
you used up all your fuckup cards
i'll help you if i can but i don't have much
love saved me from the ditch when there was no up
and thats how i know i owe you this much
you wanted to be everything to everyone
you wanted to be everything to everyone
but you lost your way somehow
you were buried by the sound
of all the tears from the lovers searching for the cup
who never made it out alive
i don't know why you spent so many years
screaming at the sky
cos now i can hear you singing from the stars
she is an octopus
she does not exist
finds the right balance for the situation
and wishes them all the best
shes plugged into the main line
shes waiting her turn to be eaten by the machine
she wanted to be everything to everyone
she wanted to be everything to everyone
but she lost her way somehow
she was buried by the sound
of all the tears from the lovers searching for the cup
who fell when they drank too much
i don't know why she spent to many years
screaming at the sky
cos now you can hear her singing from the stars
i don't know why she spent so many years
screaming at the sky
cos now you can hear her singing from the stars

don't try to move too fast
don't spread yourself too thin
be careful. you'll only kill your hope
and hurt your friends
be ridiculously brave and listen to your gut
they can cut you down to size
but they can't touch your talent or your fire
trying to learn from the mistakes you made
you've got no heroes left
you killed them all in shit quest to be the best
you wanted to be free
the mirror cut you open and got you closer to the truth
they say success is measured by
the things you've given up to be where you are
you've gotta rise up above the bad luck
you melted all memories in the sun
you've gotta rise up above the bad luck
you melted all memories in the sun
you wander the apocalypse
searching for your new colors
never want to stop or slow down
you're still crawling around downtown
searching for a free way to forget what you know
the city shines through you
as you burn up all the clues with diesel and acetone
rising up from death hangover
you've got no heroes left
you killed them all in shit quest to be the best
you wanted to be free
the mirror cut you open and got you closer to the truth
they say success is measured by
the things you've given up to be where you are
you've gotta rise up above the bad luck
you melted all memories in the sun
you've gotta rise up above the bad luck
you melted all memories in the sun
the love and hope becomes confusion and pain
as the years keep slipping away
i keep slipping away

too many circles are not enough to keep time from spinning
trying to make something good out of this life
somehow you rise up through the atmosphere
you crossed a lot of bridges and you burned every one
walked a lot of circles on a planet thats a piece of the sun
spinning out through time
gems of moments strung together in simple sonic waves
are all we have as we watch each other pass each other by
if you let yourself lay down right now you might not get up
its happening and all you have to do is hold on
awareness and evolution balancing greed
memories of home in the sun
with mercy, grace and love we will survive to listen to the circles
gems of moments strung together in simple sonic waves
are all we have as we watch each other pass each other by
