ANUBIS5 - Cranberry Gingerale lyrics

rate me

My last name is Five, that's three plus two

Constantly elevating like a hot air balloon

Shifting through these clouds on the wing of a hawk

Eroded by the sea like the edges of a rock

I get down before I get up

And locate around the middle so the elements keep inside my touch

Planting seeds and such and sleep under the money tree

And casually walk away cause dollar bills don't mean shit to me

Walking on my hands in this upside down world

Guard my trust like the oyster defends it's very pearls

The feather ink starts to twirl and spiral around the page

That gradually turns yellow over the years and the letters fade away

I slipped inside an envelope and sealed it with snail gloss

And sent myself on a journey at the flat rate my name costs

I got shifted to the edge of the planet

Tumbled down the waterfall but I didn't think to panic

I crash landed somewhere near the crossroads of fate

And talked language with the ambient voice of my soulmate

So heavenly her gaze caught my glare

It's funny how a whisp of smoke looks like a lock of angel's hair

This butterfly catastrophe has caught me off my guard

Looking through the lenspiece when I'm already amongst the stars

Always searching for a way to make my parents proud

Gentle rain dripping on me from these cumulous clouds

Changing up the patterns through the concept of string theory

I turn a deaf ear when the population hears me

Can't help aging like a photograph

Torpedoing down this tunnel of time reaching out for the past

I crack a cranberry gingerale and watch my days unfold

Sit back with a tourist's map and watch myself grow old

I crack a cranberry gingerale and watch my days unfold

Stand in front of a mirror and watch myself grow old

My birth name is Stephen with a ph

Clean slate from my past filled with pure hate

An issue that I thought I had resolved

But answers are made twice as numb through the magic 8-ball

I bled on my conscience more than once in one day

Dropped tears at the pity of plastic flowers on your grave

The days went by quick caught up in our fix

The basic qualities of reality mixed with friendship

Hush now growing child living till you're seventeen

Drank the emotion potion hoping to avoid this guillotine

I stood frozen, binded by winter and terror

In some mistaken error I was your pallbearer

This glitch had me uncompatible with simple tasks

Overloaded with councilling and anxiety attacks

I had an overload of depression

Tried to delete it but it came back with program protection

I stared into the sun until my cornia's peeled off

Seen people at face value on the serpents see-saw

Teetering all over the edge

I hopped on the balance beam and struggled to keep a clear head

Sliding down these slippery streams

I found myself drowning in a puddle of my own self-esteem

Fading like the grey pages of old Exit Theme

I pop designer drugs to escape reality

Wrinkling time and riding on the pegasus

Gracefully absorbing the wind bumping on my genesis

That's about the time when I hopped off a connecting flight

And made a phonecall to the lady that would one day save my life

I fell in love for the first time

Rejuvenated and rebirthed from my Allison's star shine

Can't help aging like a photograph

Torpedoing down this tunnel of time reaching out for the past

I crack a cranberry gingerale and watch my days unfold

Sit back with a tourist's map and watch myself grow old

I crack a cranberry gingerale and watch my days unfold

Stand in front of a mirror and watch myself grow old
