Caught Up
Hot Water Music · Till The Wheels Fall O [2008]
how do we get back away from the grind that gives no
slack to the frames the ones we filtered first which
widened our eyes through their colors shapes and designs
with everything so brand new and everthing so pure
and true when saving the world could be done in a day
with a cape and an imagination ready to play on our
hands and knees we crawled and watched as our elders
walked we soaked up all we could clung to what we knew
was good and glazed amazed at what unfolded before
our face to find out we'd forget it all by being caught
up in a race that isn't for fun at all with hands frustrated
to do instead of willing to try living by the clock
and slowly wasting away in tie on my hands and knees
i plead to see the way that a child does see and waltz
around aware not drowned not buried down or cornered
slammed a fresh start entity an easy way to be unless you're past the age
