Enter Shikari - Constellations lyrics

rate me

Packing the last few shirts into a bloated suitcase

The last glimpse of comfort and the ticking clock face

I swear those hands move faster every day

I'm more confused than ever but I don't beg or pray 'cause the

Sparkling light from the morning sun

Is all we should need to feel warm.

I reach the station with just minutes to spare,

I glance at my watch time's going faster these days I swear,

Eyes focus up now to the train time table board

There's only two platforms to be explored,

And it's then that I admit it to my self,

That I am lost so lost

But your the constellations

That guide me

There's a train at 12, destination disaster.

It's running on time as time runs faster

On platform two it's destination sustainability

It's delayed though it was suppose to arrive at 11:50.

Platform one it says stand behind the yellow line

But I sit on the platform edge and just gaze at the time.

My mind wanders back to our oblivious existence

I'm all choked up now with the threat of distance

As the train bound for disaster chokes up to the station,

I don't board it cause I decide that it's the wrong destination,

But the train bound for sustainability is nowhere to be seen

And I'm lost so lost

Where are the constellations

That guide me?

And then I realize that

We need to use our own two feet to walk these tracks,

And we have to spread out and we have to watch each others backs,

When forgiveness is our torch and imagination our sword

Well I'll tie the ropes of hate and slash open the minds of the bored

And we'll start a world so equal and free

Every inch of this earth is yours all the land and all the sea

Imagine no restrictions but the climate and the weather

Then we can explore space together

Forever

And I'm lost so lost

Where are the constellations

And I'm lost so lost

You are the constellation X5
