All at Once

All at once
They're digging at your skin
Hungry eyes
New highway begins
But all you're losing is a star
And all you're giving is your arm
But think of all the time you're gonna save
And who really needs both arms anyway?

Weren't they just
The kindest, gentle soul
Made up
And lifelike in a hole
Don't sell yourself to wooden roots & rocks
Your legacy as bones in a box
But you can celebrate your real estate
A stony face above the interstate

Lighten up
You'll float on if you try
Just wait
Til the sunset's in your eyes
And your wings are battered from the storm
And the wind keeps pushing you back North
Aren't you glad you held off on your dreams
Til they were trapped in velvet movie screens
