lyrics

one eye looks behind
and one eye stares ahead
and as we wait our turn
we turn white, blue, and red

one arm reaches left
the other arm is dead
an empty hanging sleeve
dangling by a thread

and since we’ve taken flight
from the monsters of the night
we live in fear
taking the plunge
in this Bathysphere

we’re all born alike
and we all dream the dream
but everything we share
is ripped out at the seams

and since we’ve all been gassed
by the demons of the past
we’re all in tears
gasping for air
in this Bathysphere

remember when we drove
the gravel mountain road
drenched in warm sunshine
and raindrops as we rode

one eye looks behind
and one eye stares ahead
and as we wait in line
we bleed white, blue, and red

and as we’re sitting there
in the stale recycled air
the water’s clear
see a peaceful world
from this Bathysphere

deep in our pursuit
of a lonely pas de deux
the water’s clear
find a perfect world
in this Bathysphere

Arms of Kismet Winchester, Virginia

Brooding and poppy, funny and foreboding, it’s toe-tapping, tragicomic rock ’n’ roll.
