hey stranger

(Anastasio)

It’s all I know
Finding ways to stay
Hey, stranger
Come crash for a minute

It’s all I know
Finding ways to stay
Hey, stranger
Come crash for a minute

I tried to fly
In thunderclouds
With blind eyes
And touch the sky

It’s all I know
Finding ways to stay
Hey, stranger
Come crash for a minute

When all this noise gets turned off
And you can smell the moss
In the pale blue haze
While we circle each other
Like orbiting planets
Predictable and powerful
Two lost crystals in the black night sky

I’ve got music
So, who needs anything more
To extend the time
With invisible weight
Absorbed and unalterable
In delirium
Sightly deceiving
In living light, living light

It’s all I know
Finding ways to stay
Hey, stranger
Come crash for a minute

Yesterday
Yesterday
I fell
And now I’m taking backwards steps

It’s all I know

Your hands hang by your side
And my advice begins at three
We’ll build a bridge
Some kind of machine

The hammer and the whistle
That live inside of me
While morning clouds are
Chased off by the sun hanging over the sea

Inhale the stars
Cuz that’s what you will be
Part of the lowering sky
Eventually

It’s all I know
Finding ways to stay
Hey, stranger
Come crash for a minute

it’s all I know
