Never thought it would come easy

slow as turning soil

that’s the only way to reach me that much I am sure of

bring it to a boil



Just take your time, thoroughly

let the seasons be the air you

breathe in and out

patiently

wait for spring’s returning



Try not to think too far ahead

the pendulum swings soon enough

we could stay on this side instead

but we wanna make it rough



There were times I thought I’d get there

I know you thought so too

the days have bled together

Now anyway will do

if you’re looking I might have it

but you have to look to see

the image you have of me

is what I’d like to be



I was so good at pretending

and denying when things bothered me

so shut the front door I’ll

kick in the back

metaphorically, I’m hoping



Try not to think too far ahead

the pendulum swings soon enough

we could stay on this side instead

but we wanna make it rough



Make it rough ’til they put you in the handcuff

seeking out minds that are not yet corrupt

woi-oh woi-oh and away you go

I’m a go on til the god damn juice gone

far enough into the journey to feel the satisfaction yes

action speaking louder than bombs

we just go on and on, on and on, on and on and on



Try not to think too far ahead

the pendulum swings soon enough

we could stay on this side instead

but we wanna make it rough
