Lyrics Labor Day - John Ward

In the quiet hours of nothing time
In a town not far from here
All the bookmarks and the crowds all fade away
All the parking lots and Home Depots
All empty out their tombs
And life goes back to normal once again

In May of 1886 they said screw you to the man
For life was not the way we thought it'd be
The sunset comes too late for us to stay and watch it leave
So I'll just take this pill and fade away

When time is just a time for us to wait for something more
When something more is waiting but we're standing on the shore
When shores and seas and oceans all just sit there in our view
And we just wait for nothing, here to stay
I'm thinking It's Labor Day

I feel like all the times I left myself for something more
I see myself just waving to myself back on the shore
The masts are waving in the wind
And Caspian by my side
Another big adventure may await
I'm thinking it's not a waste
I'm feeling it's Labor Day
