Wake in the morning, it's cold in the belly.
Wind comes in gusts, hits you like the night.
Clouds up above you, they're moving in pictures.
Soldiers and boatmen sail ships across the sky.
The fall of a raindrop returns blue to the daylight.
Your mind must return to behind your eyes.
So get it out of the gutter,
get it out of the other side.
Song sung in secret all through the valley.
One day I'll be great or one day will I?
Will I have to suffer all that I'm thinking
and fall with the luck of the tumbling dice?
Just get me out of where I'm sinking,
get me out and on the other side.
Athena looks down and she begs you with reason
to hold your grief with you in your hands
for a while.
There's no use in stillness for the world keeps turning.
It'll shake you and
throw your feet off the wire to get you out of your slumber,
get you out and on the other side.
