lyrics

LATE

Freeze-frame the end of an age
While eternity lingers
No sense lamenting today
Sound-asleep in a borrowed world
But now it's getting late
It's getting late

Back when the Earth was young
We enjoyed the ride
Carefree times, flying high
Dismissing the warning signs
But now it's getting late

It's getting late
To rise, rise
Is there any life
Still breathing
Anywhere,anywhere
By the side of the road

The last elder's gone from beneath the last tree
The last dove's gone flying with nowhere to fly to

It's getting much too late
For the sun to rise, watch the water rise
After all's gone dry
Everywhere, everywhere

Blood Pavement
by Johny Couteau

ROYAL UNICORN
by did you die
