lyrics

Gave it all but I'm \
Getting back to you,
The root, the stasis in violent weather.
The blank surprise, the fallout;
The fire is out but now
The kindling tends to rekindle faster.

Slowly settling down
Riverbed beckons the rougher ones, the smoking guns.
A sedimentary maze
Under cooler blue, the newer school, whose hopes are few.

Soon to come, the moonlight.
Oh silent night be still.
Will movement fragment, emotion displace.
The thinking few get louder.
Others are thunderstruck,
The shaking down, the starting over.

Slowly settling down
Riverbed beckons the rougher ones, the smoking guns.
A sedimentary maze
Under cooler blue, the newer school, whose hopes it seems are running out.
