lyrics

i just want to feel the sunrise
let me understand the moonlight
feel anything, feel anything at all

teach me how to read the surface
listen to the burning furnace
feel anything, feel anything at all

cool breeze, moons are glowing red
breathe teas, follow to the shed
lay down, river's rest your head

maybe if i turn a table
search for all the hidden labels
on everything, search anything you find

drown myself into a puddle
the burning in my chest is subtle
to feel anything, to feel anything at all

i wish that things were easy
but obviously i'll never get what i want
it's only been like two weeks
but it seems like it's been going on way to long

cool breeze, moons are glowing red
breathe teas, follow to the shed
lay down, river's rest your head

let's go to the telephone booth
where i'll talk with myself and i'll try to get loose
but i can't so i will, understand how to fill
this glass canister where i take out the roots
seeds breathe too, seeds breathe too

way out
way out
way out
way out
