Songtexte The Golden Grey - Eric Dutton

Six feet below
Six feet above
I don't know
Somewhere in between

I struggle to face every day that I wake to
I'm up to my waist, getting harder to wade through
Like on Monday I'm fine, but on Tuesday I'm not
But in the night I'm alive, and next morning I rot
I'm cold to the touch, but my sun is so hot
AMA to the Icarus up in the stars, aye
I'm about to WonkaVator outta here
Been shifting these positions, now I found the gear
Burning rubber, tire marks on the ground
Like churning butter, spinning you right around
Don't get it twisted, I am worth the trouble
Lucky for you, my last meal, it don't matter what they serve it under
For I will surely double whatever hope is still residing inside me
Waving to the crowd because I am a light beam
You've been trying to find me, but I'm fading into the dark behind the shroud
Kind of tightening and I've been

I've been flying way too high
The sun is in my eyes again
And I can't see where the sky would end and I begin
So please let the sea just take me over
And I know it's over as long as I'm colder than you

Wings clipped, it's senseless how I fall fast
Call back to my dark past
And now it's all wax melting
Cause the heat is upon us
It cuts deep if we're honest
It must be that the dawn is so golden beauty
Adonis, pay tribute to the fallen
An homage to the autumn
That's gotta be how I honor him
I don't know, guess I'll see when I'm taller
I stood on the shoulders of giants, I saw the Jupiter loom
It started creeping from the circular moon
And it's complete and it's flawless casting its evil upon this populace
I know it hurts when you move, but staying still is going to kill me
Petrified every time, but I'm still me
And I can hear what they're saying
All the gears in my brain whirring, the turning of this globe
I'm scared that I will never know my purpose till I go
And it hurts for sure
But if I were to ever go, you could probably say that

I've been flying way too high
The sun is in my eyes again
And I can't see where the sky would end and I begin
So please let the sea just take me over
And I know it's over as long as I'm colder than you
