about

additional vocals by ally garcia

lyrics

opening
blurring scenery
boundless greenery
ceaselessly encircling
and bleeding into me
the days creep slowly by
while months leave me behind
the buzzing air droning while
we drag on through the night

there's a place
i have never been
it animates my heart
though my eyes begin to dim
this cycle
where did it begin?
i can't even think before
it's started again

now the dogs are running
and they're "holding nothing back"
they can run forever
but the callow eyes they had
are never coming back

now i see
in opposing trees
split by a ravine
through the night
an eerie and foreboding kind of light
a vulgar and obscene
nameless tragedy
blazing by a terrifying
lonesome way to die
for a while
flames lit up the night
and smoke flowed like a fountain
obscuring the texas sky
air blew by
the scene is left behind
the vibrant, savage light
is left tarnished by the night

so the dogs keep running
a crazed hunt for something lacked
they can search forever
but the fertile lives they had
are never coming back

and it's been part of me for such a long time
i don't know who i'd be without it now
but it's coming undone from the inside
and i'm evading debris coming down
are you scanning around for a way out?

cause i can see the real world coming
a black cloud enshrouding my idealistic heart
and i can sense this dream state ending
these meager strands of hope all pulling apart
i want to live without delusion
am i strong enough? am i strong enough?
to walk the path instead of talking?
instead of manning a vessel condemned to rot?

the clocks are running
black clouds turn to gray
the verdant glow of your eyes washes away
the clocks keep running
the feeling that you had
the past you cling to
is never coming back
