TO PROMOTE our live album, we'll be releasing the songs serially, for fifty cents - so that the people who can't donate more don't have to donate more, and the people who can are able to.
lyrics
My wall was a crutch, now the ground that I stand on
but for her, it is nothing more, nothing more than a malady
now I sing of ships set sail in opposite directions
but never was a person's illness treated by a melody
Feeble, her branches shake against the cold.
Rooted in topsoil, what few leaves left are wavering:
This is the truth I, like Atlas, hold.
And in this lifeless soil, I, myself, am neighboring her.
Mother, stay away from me, oh
mother, come back to me
mother, stay away from me
mother, come back to me
To will that your roots move when they're shackled to the ground
Is a bird falling, featherless, wishing he could fly,
but can you save yourself from murder if you don't make a sound?
Oh god, what the hell am I worth, if I let someone define me?
Two broken households, both alike in dignity
cast seeds to Santa Cruz, where we lay our scene.
One's seeking distance; one, proximity
Both pursue remedy for their respective malady
Mother, come back to me.
Oh, mother, stay away from me
mother, come back to me
mother, stay away from me.
but for her, it is nothing more, nothing more than a malady
now I sing of ships set sail in opposite directions
but never was a person's illness treated by a melody
Feeble, her branches shake against the cold.
Rooted in topsoil, what few leaves left are wavering:
This is the truth I, like Atlas, hold.
And in this lifeless soil, I, myself, am neighboring her.
Mother, stay away from me, oh
mother, come back to me
mother, stay away from me
mother, come back to me
To will that your roots move when they're shackled to the ground
Is a bird falling, featherless, wishing he could fly,
but can you save yourself from murder if you don't make a sound?
Oh god, what the hell am I worth, if I let someone define me?
Two broken households, both alike in dignity
cast seeds to Santa Cruz, where we lay our scene.
One's seeking distance; one, proximity
Both pursue remedy for their respective malady
Mother, come back to me.
Oh, mother, stay away from me
mother, come back to me
mother, stay away from me.
