A Home & A Family Waiting

from Exit Strategy by Twikki

	/

lyrics

Everyday is reduced to a small box on the calendar
and you cross off the days you feel you've achieved meaning
And all the earth's complexities fade at sea
there is nothing to see here, nothing for me

And i'll keep wasting time
chase a former life
follow it through to each thread of the earth
to a home & a family waiting

The messages in broken bottles sink to the oceans floor
and maybe you just can't be saved or maybe there's another way
The mouth's of all the rivers cleared the lumps in their throats
and spat you back into the hollow ocean
