lyrics

One day fields may turn to ash
And age-old flesh will burn away
And the memories of this old man
Young painted on his face
Will sift away like tiny crystals
In a seabed far away
And we won’t remember this
And the love will lose its gaze
Let’s be happy in a moment
Let us all get around this dirt
Could you give me just a moment
My poor knees have lost their worth
I’ll get around

Don’t be bitter
Don’t be mean
Don’t forget about what lied beyond the seam
I’m not happy
But that doesn’t mean I’m sad
Just a lost boy
Longing for what Peter had
And if Atlas sighs and shrugs
May we all sing him along
A battered orphan of the times
Through his action, I will mime
About the pretty girls at home
And the ugliness they hide
And the tall boys of the time
Only wishing they could sign
The last note off with a smile
Hoping they’re dust will last a while
Hoping all of this is kissed
With archangels winged blessed
May I be torn asunder
May my eyes melt through the sunder
May my bones get turned sulfur
And my flesh rots against the winter
May my feet scream in the night
Summer get me off my ass
Let me have one last fight
Let me get around

Get me around

Oh Lord
I’ll get around
