lyrics

i'm a dangerous man with arms in my hands
please understand that i'm sinking
in contagious sand from dried up lands
nowhere to stand so i'm running away again
with muscles tight
i must take flight

but what if i

ran into myself running
and asked me where i go
always seems to be the same old
place that we go crazy

i'm a curious man, i catch what i can
i write it on my hand
yeah, and i've got endangered plans
trapped in a van
but where they began
i cannot find that trail or bust that jail
so i'll set sail

but what if i

i'm a patient man, an open clam
please understand that i'm closing up my shop
my sails have dropped, my sales have stopped
and i'm losing my consciousness, my endurance
but not my sense of growing old

you can't push the river
you can push me in it

i'm waiting for the end of this violent current
leave that job below to the undertow

i ran into myself drowning and said "hey how do you breathe?"
sure, but i thought that you we're ready
to fade out to your peace...
no!

Get swept away in their guitar fury, pounded by their rhythm section, and then soothed as the band harnesses magical dynamics to heal you, only to tear you apart again to remind you that you're alive. ... more
