Lyrics

Kissing Families

Stop the season stop the sting
A plastic mic a broken string
Infected wound from a rusty ring
So what?
Soon you'll be there too (x2)
Kissing families can recall
A program to derail us all
Forgotten prison it's been safe 'til now
It's no wonder that we did it this way
Keep looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful.
Now I know where I stand.
Move on
Roll along
Not today
It's everything that's connected and beautiful
Now, I know where I stand.
Thank god you're heart is to close.
This can't be the bitter end.
I know it won't.
Well someone said I made a mistake
Kept looking forward on paths sideways
It's everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Seasons always shift too late
Spent too much time now I'm bent sideways
Everything that is connected and beautiful
And now I know just where I stand
Thank god it's over
