Lyrics
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed by a moment complete in its happiness
Far away from the things that we wish escape that lead us to think that we are not awake
We are ourselves despite ourselves this place grows smaller as the universe swells
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
And I am not the only lifeguard who’s washed up on the shore
CHORUS:
Wake me up, take me out, calm me down when I’m in doubt
And I’m in doubt every day
Words are like weight with density and shape, modifying forms that evaporate
You can choose the truth, you can listen to light, you can lead the charge and still lose the fight
Far be it for me to claim anything for I am just one in a state of being
I come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only proverb that never really fits
And I am not the only Caulfield whose catching more than kids
CHORUS
And so it ends as it begins as everything that is infinite ascends
Unto its time all things pass, all this fade, all things last
You are yourself despite yourself this world grows smaller as the universe swells
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only boxer that hasn’t words to write
And I am not the only poet whose much too scared to fight
CHORUS
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed by a moment complete in its happiness
We are our ourselves eventually, eventually, eventually
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
