Floating In & Out Lyrics

A menagerie of green is sleeping silently at ease as if the wind hummed both our mothers' favorite hymnal song.



And though I felt indignant 'bout the cause of the events, it was apparent very early I was not the cause.



Oh fee and fie,

Oh foe and then fum,

There is a giant looming over us

While she wants what she wants

Just summer seeds planted in recklessness



So very, very lightly on the strings of what we are there is a hollow yellow yelling at the stars tonight.



While feuding fading fury sunk in deeply to the bone as if they'd like to figure out what they would like to try.



While you and I and everyone else

We have no clue what we are doing here

But we want what we want

And never thought that we could want too much



And though I speak

These words do not mean

That I have ever really had an understanding



Or I can try

To do what I like

And hope that there is nothing gained from this pretending



So I am born

From now til I'm gone

And when I leave I won't be waiting on forever



All my life

I've done what I liked

Though there are times that I have wanted to be better

(I shall be

All that I can see

Floating in and out of this life)



(But I have found

These words do not resound

But float among our sleeping eyelids)



(When night descends

And lays me in my bed

I'll turn to face the silence smiling)
