Lyrics

Retina Sees Rewind

Forgiving now a daze

Blankets turn to rays

Covering the sun

Laid out on the lawn

Trying not to yawn

In front of everyone

Oxygen is still

Waiting for a thrill

Too diverse a time

And I'll have you know

Going suck to blow

Is wind to move a chime

Counterfeit, colorblind, quietly a mime

Retina sees rewind

Man above, made of mass, squinting by design

Open up the blinds

Forgiving now a daze

Blankets turn to rays

Covering the sun

Laid out on the lawn

Trying not to yawn

In front of everyone

Oxygen is still

Waiting for a thrill

To divert the time

Well I'll have you know

Going suck to blow

Is wind to move a chime

Counterfeit, colorblind, quietly a mime

Retina sees rewind

Man above, made of mass, squinting by design

Open up, you're blind
