lyrics

i keep on waiting for a thing to arrive
they tell me
you keep on waiting i’m afraid you will die
i tell them
the thing i’m waiting for’s a will to survive
so help me
if i never get out of here alive

you’d better hand me the noose
better pay off my dues
now tell me, what’s there to lose
but your mind?

you’re always looking for a puzzle to solve
it’s cute, but
there’s nothing more than desultory resolve
of course, yet
maybe there’s something where the logic dissolves
and further
we’re all just waiting by phones for a call

from someone
behind the scenes
an orchestrator of dreams
a certain someone
who deemed us to be

This track just gives me some nostalgia about Alaska. I miss the green and the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, even though I live in the Rocky Mountains. It just gives me a comfort I didn’t know I needed. RamenMan97
