THE TEARAWAYS LYRICS

"Looking Out"

Looking out over the sunrise skyline
where do I begin to tell you what I saw last night
Like a cannonball of flame we shot across the stratosphere
together all as one never knowing fear

With a big boom crash
a collision of worlds
At first there seemed nothing left
but a new galaxy was birthed
As sure the light brings the day
even the brightest star will fade
This you know… but in the darkness it will always glow

When you break it all down you’ll have nothing left,
try to put it back together but the pieces won’t fit
It’s the mystery, it’s the side unseen

Looking out over the smoke stack skyline
where the pistons pump and the gears keep crunching
The engine floods with blue collar blood while the battery
is charged and drained again and again like our humanity

If the flames rise in the east
and the rain falls in the west
Will the whole thing run as hot and clean
as the heart in this man’s chest
We’re burning up in the heat and the haze
enslaved… automatons in a mecha-maze

Looking out over the sunset skyline
I hear their primal calls I see them swinging from the tree vine
It’s feeding time in the maniacal crackpots menagerie
We break the chains that bind… and we’re running free…
