lyrics

this is how the rocks fell
while she scaled the mountain
reached the pinnacle and what did she see?
it wasn’t everything she thought it would be

this is how the night fell
while she chased a glimmer
in the supernova she did find
a light so bright that it left her blind
but she’s smiling, baby

and maybe that’s everything
and hey, maybe not
when your bliss is what you’ve got
you spread your wings and drop
in the year of reckoning

and that is called stagecraft
the man behind the curtain
found him sitting there, turning a crank
and she really didn’t know who to thank
but she’s laughing, baby

and maybe that’s nothing
and hey, maybe not
you punch your ticket and you take your shot
you wait to see what drops
in the year of reckoning

no sooner did she know she was awake and alive
a year of reckoning turned into five

now she’s hitchhiking to your door
doesn’t need a car anymore

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