Protest The Hero - Palms Read lyrics

As often as always evolution is crawling from the sea, alive with the urgency like suicide,

convinced the grass is greener on dry earth;

the march of serrated utterance like a soft cough muffled murmur sneaking through the lecture hall

The crawl across the island, the sound of waves; embodied water sprouting legs as loud as gallop,

cuffing down on ground against the cries of gravity.

All the young people who took a leak without faith into a riverbed that frowns about as much as it saves

All the young cowards acting our for the brave forever hurled into the waters of their indifferent graves

Belly-up, half buried in the sand, extend a hand to the smallness of death.

Understand that only dying is this colossal, creation shedding skin to find a perfect equilibrium like fossils

For a million years, raise your glass in cheers – we will never answer where we came from only how we got here
