lyrics

THE SHALLOW SKY
THAT FUSCHIA-PINK PETAL SATELLITE
SUN SHINES IN MY EYES THOUGH IT CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY

RED AND LONELY FALLING SLOWLY
UNDER THE BAYWOOD SIGN
NO SUNSHINE

STOP ALL THE WAY
'CAUSE YA GOTTA LOOK AROUND SOMETIMES
IF NOT, YA MIGHT JUST TRIP ON LIFE
AS IT SLIPS BY UNDER YOUR FEET

JAGGED, CRACKED, AND BROKEN LIKE SO MANY WORDS SPOKEN SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
CHIN UP, OR YA MIGHT HIT YOUR HEAD
SOMETIMES YA FALL INSTEAD OF JUMPIN' OUTTA BED
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES

CLIMB THE STEEPLE TELL THE PEOPLE
IT AIN'T ABOUT JESUS, OR DEMONS, OR A CHOIR OF ANGELS
MOSAIC TREES BLUE AND PURPLE SCENES
CREATION LIGHTS UP MY LIFE LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE

STOP ALL THE WAY
'CAUSE YA GOTTA LOOK AROUND SOMETIMES
IF NOT, YA MIGHT JUST TRIP ON LIFE
AS IT SLIPS BY UNDER YOUR FEET

JAGGED, CRACKED, AND BROKEN LIKE SO MANY WORDS SPOKEN SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
CHIN UP, OR YA MIGHT HIT YOUR HEAD
SOMETIMES YA FALL INSTEAD OF JUMPIN' OUTTA BED
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES

DON'T FIGHT THE FIRE IN YOUR HEART
IT'LL LIGHT YOUR EYES AND WARM YOUR SOUL
AND HELP YOU MAKE IT THROUGH THE DARK

UNDER THAT BAYWOOD SIGN
EVERYTHING RHYMES, IN TIME, YOU'LL FIND
YEAH, YOU'LL FIND
BRUSH-STROKES AND QUARTZ AND CHROMA-TONES
BENEATH ALL THE SKIN AND BONES
YOU CONTROL THE COLOR OF YOUR SOUL

JAGGED, CRACKED, AND BROKEN LIKE SO MANY WORDS SPOKEN
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
CHIN UP, OR YA MIGHT HIT YOUR HEAD
SOMETIMES YA FALL INSTEAD OF JUMPIN' OUTTA BED
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
SOMETIMES THAT'S HOW IT GOES
