New Round Beck

When the oceans are dark
The heavens are foreboding
A chain link wind
Is breaking you open
Lessons of the day
On the blackboard of night
Seem to be erased
And the becon has no light
the eyes of confusion (starts to repeat)
looking for a string
everything they needed
to keep the dogs at bay
theres no escape hatch
no submarine
could take you to the moon
rake you in the leaves
keep you just as safe
as you are in my arms
some day some day say bye bye bye bye bye(repeating)
bye bye bye

Im smaller than a stone
bigger than a road
farther than an ocean
closer than a soul
every little word
and every little step
every new direction
closer you will get
the farther away
you grow from where you are
ill try to keep with you
hold you like a star (?)
from a frozen lake
to a hollow moon
push yourself beyond
the wall they carve for you
when you bring it down
with all their false signs
when you ???? (Unintelligible)
don't forget ???? (Unintelligible)
bye bye.....
*"What?"
"Dinner time yeah"
