lyrics

Oh, we've done alright by this so far
So why not give this one more decade
To discover just who we are

'Cause oh, lifetimes traverse at break-neck speed
And you won't get all that you desperately desire
No matter how intensely you may bleed

You know, there's just no way to harness time
Procrastination is a cancer on the soul
A dancer without glow,
A copping to a hypothetical invented crime

All in all we've done okay
Through these expended days and
Though stopping is not possible
To reflect, we‘ve got to go
And seize the coming winter spell
Before the actors toll their bell
Ignite the deadwood, sleigh the trolls,
Obliterate the static, status quo -

We're doing plenty fine thus far
Being most confident in
Knowing just exactly who we are
We see no reason nor purpose
In a gaze towards the stars

Although there's quiet thunder in the distant hills
Leaving us to wonder if someday
That it may encroach upon
Our coddled comfort cottages
And test those fluid anchors of our will

And all in all we've done okay
Through these sweet initial days
Passionate dramas self-composed
Through poetry and clever prose
And I can see the liberty in shadows just outside of me
And I can climb the muddy walls and stand above it all

And roar! There has got to be a path to soar
We've got to set the mind to find a way
Come what may, now-a-days
There are sparse new doors, oh
The lore is not reflected in reality
Strongly rejecting the conformity,
The normal-ty, chaotic seas
Carry us to foreign shores, oh,
A brand new place to roar!
