Chemical Switches |
I keep hearing a vicious rumor |
From the backrooms, to the aisles, to the avenues |
That you lost your sense of humor |
And the first place you look is the soles of your shoes |
And I watch these ice fields melt into the sea |
Warming you’re oceans to centuries |
Will your saline waters bring you back to me? |
All the weight is bringing me to my knees |
Chemical switches thrown in the dark |
All it takes is a spark to begin |
And can you tell which is a one with a mark? |
Bleeds through the clothes to the skin |
Too long I keep searching the aisles and avenues |
But it seems I’m doing it wrong |
For I’ve seen neither hide nor hair of you |
And it’s a short short walk from pebbles to bricks |
From stones back to sticks |
We’re lowering the boiling point |
And as time goes back it’s harder to fix |
It’s a volatile mix, like hydrogen and oxygen |
Chemical switches thrown in the dark |
All it takes is a spark to begin |
