Pale Green

Lyrics via Live Performance

[Verse 1]

[?] my grayhound [?] last Monday at the park

From a bench I watched him running laps 'til it got dark

A whistle and we're off out of our liminal escape

And all the locals heard all day was that and a slight jangling

Loom around, you do the math

Dream it or a sociopath

All I ever did was lurk

But I control the future

They'll read into nothingness

No matter what it means

Factor in the things they see

Preceded and resulting

[Pre-Chorus]

Besides, in my mind I don't want to chase

I am not prey but the world is walking

So far away from me

[Chorus]

Besides, in my mind I don't want to chase

I am not prey but the world is sauntering back

Through shadеs of pale green

[Verse 2]

Strike ninty-nine, at lеast

[?]

With only object permanence for problematic thinking

Take [?] and run with it and blame on some new medicine

A much larger proportion of behaviors than they're causing

Many which are calling now, the doorframe bone to run around

And sprint around this puzzle piece

And dangle like an earring

To call it shame and entertain, it's simultaneously

So far away from me

[Pre-Chorus]

Besides, in my mind I don't want to leave

And that same bead I stared down staying

Save that to a file of behaviors now below me

[Chorus]

Besides, in my mind I don't want to chase

I am not prey but the world is sauntering back

Through shades of pale green

[Verse 3]

No hard feelings now

No wrong hands about

This old house or this odd pair of still and quiet mirrors

Sideways looking into one

There's no clear end to the green-ish tunnel

But there's no need to see the illusion

As a mode of transportation

Thin rectangles shrinking down

To anywhere's enough for now

I don't care where it's supposed to lead

I'm glad I saw a pale green at all

[Outro]

At all

At all

At all
