[INTRO - no drums, close vocal]
We're pattern seeking
Story telling beings
I feel this is something
We should hold onto
[VERSE 1 - soft beat enters]
A toast to all
From first meeting
Till now
The journeys
We've taken
And the roads
That have led us home
Nice and all
How is one
To take
A comment like that?
Oh to know
To not know
To not be able
To want
For naught
[HOOK - gentle, reflective]
Melting in the distance
Morning light
Everything dissolves
Then comes back right
Grass hills
Flowers
Unimaginable
In the light
Melting in the distance
After no sleep tonight
[VERSE 2 - half-spoken, social weight]
To not take consideration
For another
To have
No concern
What could it be like?
To move forward
With others
As passengers
What value?
How to feel
To know
To watch
And witness
One day
Traded
For another
[BREAK - 4 bars - instrumental only]
[Dusty kick, late snare, muted Rhodes, warm bass pulse. No lead vocal.]
[VERSE 3 - close vocal, slow and vivid]
When your body
Is past the point
No matter how awake
Your mind is
You don't even notice
It happening
But eventually
Things in the distance
Start to look
Like they are melting
[HOOK - female backing underneath]
Melting in the distance
Morning light
Everything dissolves
Then comes back right
Grass hills
Flowers
Unimaginable
In the light
Melting in the distance
After no sleep tonight
[BRIDGE - drums thin, dreamy but tired]
When you shift your view
It stops
For a second
Then starts up
Again
Eventually
It's happening
Practically always
No matter
Where you look
Everything appears
To be dissolving
Before you
Sleep
Is the only option
At this point
[FINAL VERSE - warm dawn release]
Grass hills
And flowers
Create
An unimaginable tapestry
In the morning light
No one really gets
To live
In a Bjork world
Most of us
Would be lucky
With a PJ Harvey world
[FINAL HOOK - soft, accepting]
Melting in the distance
Morning light
Everything dissolves
Then comes back right
Grass hills
Flowers
Unimaginable
In the light
Melting in the distance
After no sleep tonight
[OUTRO - beat dissolves, dawn ambience]
We're pattern seeking
Story telling beings
I feel this is something
We should hold onto
[FINAL WHISPER]
Sleep is the only option
At this point
