Lyrics "Synesthesia" - Andrew McMahon In the Wilderness
I
saw
pictures
from
the
space
shuttle
North
America
at
night
I
could
almost
see
my
house
I
could
almost
see
the
rest
of
my
life
Now
my
mothers
in
the
hospital
And
my
friends
are
in
the
news
Collecting
trophies
for
the
songs
they
wrote
When
we
lived
in
the
shadow
of
the
moon
Guess
I
never
make
a
gold
record
And
I
have
never
been
to
Mars
But
I′ve
traveled
around
this
world
Shooting
fireworks
at
falling
stars
(and
prison
bars)
And
my
fathers
got
a
decent
job
I
hear
he's
finally
pulling
through
There′s
more
to
life
than
singing
songs
we
write
When
we
are
in
the
shadow
of
the
moon
And
I
see
colors
When
I
hear
your
voice
Grab
your
wings
they're
putting
gravity
on
trial
I
see
colors,
I
don't
hear
the
noise
Because
we′re
only
flying
for
a
while
Because
we′re
only
flying
for
a
while
I
saw
this
picture
of
my
niece
Twisting
high
above
the
narrow
beam
And
my
brother
looked
so
proud
Like
he
woke
up
in
this
perfect
dream
And
I've
know
you
all
my
life
But
I
knew
you
long
before
that
too
Let′s
go
dancing
to
the
songs
we
wrote
When
we
lived
in
the
shadow
of
the
moon
And
I
see
colors
When
I
hear
your
voice
Grab
your
wings
They're
putting
gravity
on
trial
I
see
colors
I
don′t
hear
the
noise
Sometimes
we're
only
flying
for
a
while
And
I
could
love
you
in
the
falling
rain
Go
grab
your
things
This
is
a
storm
we′re
meant
to
ride
Like
synesthesia,
aboard
a
stalling
plane
It's
like
we're
only
flying
for
a
while
Flying
for
a
while
And
I
see
colors
When
I
hear
your
voice
Grab
your
wings
They′re
putting
gravity
on
trial
I
see
colors
I
don′t
fear
the
choice
Sometimes
we're
only
flying
for
a
while
And
I
could
love
you
in
the
falling
rain
Go
grab
your
wings
This
is
the
storm
we′re
meant
to
ride
Like
synesthesia,
a
board
a
stalling
plane
Sometimes
we're
only
flying
for
a
while
Flying
for
a
while
Flying
for
a
while
Flying
for
a
while
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
I
can
see
the
colors
running
When
I
hear
the
music
play
