YELLOW SECOND - LESSER ONES lyrics

look ahead and see the place to meet me

is only about halfway

but fissures running up your face defeat me

and echo the words i say

it's a stone I would throw after-

but you're much too far away

and i'd be sure to miss

you'll remember i said this, one day

consider the lesser ones

your daughters and yes, your sons

let it come, and with it bring

feeling anew

(but) it don't mean a thing

(to you)

you give only broken hints for weeks now

so tell me how did you fare?

i don't think we've spoken since you found out

and maybe i shouldn't care

so in self pity drown when you're down under water

wishing you were there

how long will you last

without ever coming up for air?

another day goes by and still i wait for you

still, i cannot deny the things i know are true

we'll wait it out and see, a minute more

a minute more

consider the lesser ones

your daughters and yes, your sons

if you ever want them back

then maybe try meeting them where they're at
