These summer days have slipped and I feel slighted
Sweet malaise, boy better break
Fall fell so fast it was a hell-scape haircut
Despite the color change, no, there was no change at all
So I guess the hours past
Nurse this hourglass
Oh, what a strange time to be alive
No boundaries left to cross in this godforsaken snow globe
We carry on until we carry on
Spring us from the grave when it all starts blooming
Flock can't come home again
Not sure if it's fast or slow
That light in the tunnel
Just to see it feels strange
That light in the tunnel
Just might be a train
Oh, Lordy, what a strange time to be alive
Lordy, what a strange time to be alive
Lordy, what a strange time
Just to want to be alive
