Palms Read (Instrumental) Lyrics

As often as always
Evolution comes crawling from the sea
Alive with the urgency like suicide, like suicide
Convinced the grass is greener on dry earthThe march of serrated utterance like a soft cough
Muffled murmur sneaking through the lecture hall
They crawl across the islandSound of waves
Embodied water
Sprouting legs, loud as gallopAll the young people
Who took a leap with no faith into a riverbed
That drowns about as much as it savesSlowing down on the ground
Against the cries of gravityCrawling on, half buried in the sand
Extend a hand to the smallness of death
Understand that only dying is this colossalCreation, shedding skin
To find the perfect equilibrium like fossils
All the young people
Who took a leap of no faithAll the young cowards acting out
All the young cowards acting out
For the braves forever hurled

Into the waters of their indifferent gravesFor a million years raise your glass
We will never answer where we came from
For a million years raise your glass in a cheer
We'll never answer where we came from
Only how we gotFor a million years raise your glass
We will never answer where we came from
For a million years raise your glass
Only how we got here
