Consolation Lyrics
It's all so bright
These blossoms on the
Pavement look so nice
It's sad to see them fall
But it's alright
I guess you got to go
SometimeIt's everyone
Thrown tendrils to the wind
we reach for sun
No thought for what could be
or damage done
Just to feel alive for onceLet's just sit a while and watch the cars go by
Maybe save the talking for another time
I just want to make it to a better day
I wonder where they go to make it all okay
Some consolationLooking back
I wonder when the ties
Began to slack
You can't help the way
You grow and that's a fact
Been looking for the holes
But not the cracksAnd so we sing
Raised voices to the sky,
Echoing
Just waiting for the cops to
Stop this thing
The inevitable reckoningLet's just sit a while and watch the cars go by
Maybe save the talking for another time
I just want to make it to a better day
I wonder where they go to make it all okay
Some consolation
Some consolation
Give me consolation
A little bit of consolationAnd the girls are fine
And the guys are fine
And the love is real
As the faith is blindAnd the bills are paid
With the payment due
And the blood is red
But the heart is blueAnd the Mondays come
And the Fridays go
And you believe and hope
But you never knowAnd still every scar
Has a job to do
To warn you about me
And to warn me about you, about youLet's just sit a while and watch the cars go by
Maybe save the talking for another time
I just want to make it to a better day
I wonder where they go to make it all okay
Some consolation
Some consolation
Give us consolation
A little bit of consolation
