about

A quarantine thought experiment

lyrics

A vacant space surrenders
The lock undone and bent
I feel a familiar stranger
Am I outrun and spent?

I sleep beside the trigger
Who holds the gun?

Hold on, hold on
Hold the hand that slips away
Hold on, hold on
What you're missing gives a way over

A feather raises metal
The young turn grey
We could wander lost forever
But who will stay?

To waste and wind these hours
Til into sun we break
Let them wrestle with our power
We give away

Hold on, hold on
Hold the hand that slips away
Hold on, hold on
Hold the hand that slips away
Hold on, hold on
What you're missing gives a way over

Give over
