Locusts Lyrics

This is goodbye another locust goes flying by

And now it's time for the circus to sleep

Suddenly it's quiet then it suddenly starts to breathe

It's what you expected, better run, better hide your face

I bet my life on a jetpack on Strawberry Hills

I fan the fires, oh for fun and for hire

Can't imagine nobody will run away, train of thought

And I'll understand if you come to conclusions

Your demented dreams

They're holding up despite of me

And sooner or later you will be

Something like a memory

Oh don't you cry, the fish are jumping across the sky

A little light on the mountain goes out

Living in the town that took the king down a crown of bones

A steady hand is abandoning signs of hope

And in the dark I can still set her face on fire

A volunteer who's on top of the task

If it had not been for that young girl who was walking by

I'd still have money, I'd still have some hope

But now it's all I see

Just sweeter than gasoline

The sooner the better it falls together

And now, you're something like a memory

Something like a memory

Something like a memory

La la la la la la la, la, la la la

Something like a memory

Your demented dreams

They're holding up despite of me

And sooner or later you will be

Something like a memory

I heard you coming, in the jungle I'm sensible

Haven't the time for the circus no more

Even when the wind picks up you swing on the desert moon

Give me your hand and when you land I will stage your play

I shouldn't be speaking but you know that's impossible

We'd concentrate but that's just going too far (we concentrate)

I remember nothing as we circle the animal

If I was mistaken then the story is older still

Now it's all I see

Just sweeter than gasoline

The sooner the better it falls together

And now, you're something like a memory

We never said that we're beyond our own past

Something like a memory

Something like a memory

We never said that we're beyond our own past

Something like a memory

Something like a memory

We never said that we're beyond our own past

Something like a memory

Something like a memory

We never said that we're beyond our own past
