lyrics

Step Outside:

step outside
your walls are keeping the winters bone locked up
feel the warmth of the world
rushing through your bones

see the faces of the people
waiting for the subway lines
shutting themselves up
from any irregularity

when the traffic light
stops at yellow just a little too long
the path is cleared for thoughts
coming up in your head

a brief reminder
for the comrades waiting around you
that none of them is
walking this streets alone

you'll start another brief attempt
you'll start another brief attempt
you want another brief attempt
you need another brief attempt

what is this world outside
once so prominent
where the people all around you
are nothing more than objects in your way
what is keeping us from using
the unbinding moments we share together
as lessons for the times when good communication is inevitable

you kiss the girl next to you
hug a stranger on the open street
scream out loud as you spin in circles over the crosswalk
"all is well, we are here, why the long faces, open up, dont be afraid of different ways"
you get arrested locked up in a cold room again with just a naked stonewall to look at

you got another dark attempt
you got another dark attempt
you got another dark attempt
you got another dark attempt
