Said The Whale - Plans for the Future lyrics

Daylight is fading like an awkward smile Sun hides behind the west coast I thought I thought I knew I had everything figured out Till night came and I lost my shadow Blend in with moonlight and broken gla** Ten hours of panic will follow I'm lost, the trees look black, my red shirt is turning grey Strange things just won't stop appearing Give my day give me light! These days, those days... I was taught to bottle my emptiness Deal with my quarter life angst by painting pictures The tip of my pencil describes what I might have drawn Had my left brain and right hand been in contact Broken sentences now! Read on... Then all at once, the sky started raining Soaked to the bone, I stopped The people of night time came out of hiding One of them turned my way She said: I'd like to tell you some things I wish I'd known When I was young like you It won't take a second, but it could save you years Years pa** like seconds out here I was enthralled with the way that she spoke so softly For a lady of her finesse and personal hygiene She had cuts, bruises, scrapes, scratches, hair tangled everywhere But she spoke in a way that commanded my attention You're at the top of your game You're in control of your life The peal of the oyster, the cream of the oreo, What I would give for that I hope you never know So live your life, don't sleep through the nights Life's for the living you've got to start living it right So live your life, don't sleep through the days Dreams are for living you've got to stop letting them die
