lyrics

Running east with a compass
Running East with a compass and we're trying to find a sunset. With such accurate use of our own worst excuses. From the dizzying heights of those wayward and curbed adventures, came the advances of our brand new direction. They say never look back but we had to have a look and we found it there. The falling sun right or wrong was behind us all the time. Just like bread in the oven it must our time to rise. Don't regret for a second or try to sympathize. You and I both know that the best years to come. In the irony of our currency worth its weight in gold, why is a raven like a writing desk, I don't know. My implausible conclusions are lacking a stronger case, like the out dated assumptions of our position in the human race, or the value of our great escape from it. Does the heart that we beat bleed with obsolescence? When we're done and we're gone, will there be love still in our presence. For all that I ask was it music and love that used us to stay alive? Because I never found value or comfort in the cars that I drive. You and I know that the best years to come. In the irony of our currency worth its weight in gold, why is a raven like a writing desk, I don't know. My implausible conclusions are lacking a stronger case, like the out dated assumptions of our position in the human race, or the value of our great escape from it.
