From the recording Wind Up
Lyrics
COMING UP FOR AIR
Three inside
All behind each other
Attitude
Shifting mood and balance
Coming up for air
Waiting for the right time
The role of your life
Clamp down hard like a vice
Shunning the turncoats
Taking your own advice
Over the Moon
Over too soon
Isn’t it good?
Good
Catching every nuance
Combing the landscape
Rich with the textures of you
Owning the time
History falling apart
Scale the last bastion
Horse tripping over the cart
Route to the end
Where have you been?
Places so thin
Thin
Things are looking up
Deep from the altered state
Back to where everything began
Matter of the crux
Peel off the dead weight layers
Get down to what you understand
By your own hand
Mountains watch on
Monuments stand
However long…
For the first day
And long for the last
You pray for a future
Coming up for air
Pushing past the guideline
Darker hold
Taking toll on me now
Taste for good
If I could be sure of
Coming up for air
Waiting for the right time
Coming up for air
Pushing past the guideline
Wayfarers indulging
Complicated subjects
Interlocked in motion
Confined in this enclosure
Turns become disorder
Ranges touch new borders
Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Litmus boy
Rise above your brothers
Don’t lose your head
Fall back again
You’ll be there
Coming up for air
Waiting for the right time
Coming up for air
Pushing past the guideline
