Maps
When we land on this earth
We begin by counting upwards
Til we're grown and learn the curse
That the clock is counting backwards
And the fear spins wheels around
We measure miles and stops between
We measure six feet in the ground
For our last ride in a black machine
Time spent in cars, the middle lines
Are just stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Asphalt and morse code
Maps to get us home
We're born in a chase
Takes us time to turn the key and start
When we get brave
When we recognize our heart
How it beats, how it hums
How sometimes it gets violent
Hell on wheels, it just runs on sorcery and science
And on time spent in hearts, the jagged lines
Are just stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Arteries and bone
Maps that get us home
We look for meaning in celestial friction
The heavens speaking or our intuition
Is it God in our head
Is it dust
From our time spent in stars
A grand design from the stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Moonlight and black holes
Arteries and bone
Asphalt and morse code
Maps that get us home
So we land on earth alone
And we land on earth alone
We begin by counting upwards
Til we're grown and learn the curse
That the clock is counting backwards
And the fear spins wheels around
We measure miles and stops between
We measure six feet in the ground
For our last ride in a black machine
Time spent in cars, the middle lines
Are just stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Asphalt and morse code
Maps to get us home
We're born in a chase
Takes us time to turn the key and start
When we get brave
When we recognize our heart
How it beats, how it hums
How sometimes it gets violent
Hell on wheels, it just runs on sorcery and science
And on time spent in hearts, the jagged lines
Are just stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Arteries and bone
Maps that get us home
We look for meaning in celestial friction
The heavens speaking or our intuition
Is it God in our head
Is it dust
From our time spent in stars
A grand design from the stitches that we sew
Through the dark tiny marks
Moonlight and black holes
Arteries and bone
Asphalt and morse code
Maps that get us home
So we land on earth alone
And we land on earth alone
