Where's this color come from
Of that that's already been
A black eye that lasts forever

Bruises deeper than the skin
These moments so distilled
That are etched and sink like stones

Like particles of pain and pleasure
Troubled water to take you home


And there it goes, another day down
Yesterday I felt so light
Tomorrow I think I'll drown

My body set on fire
Frozen in time and unmasked
Let he who turns down the wine

Have the first stone to cast

Now I'm far from hopeless

Cause I watched the planes crash on down
Put a flag out on my doorstep
Before I saw 'em all over town

Here's a little tip toward oblivion
For you and your things lost
Believe in something bigger

It comes at quite a cost

Here's a heads up

For those like you and me
Who press back on gravity
Until gravity lets us be


So I never heard the truth
'Til I heard it in his song

And I never saw the buildings
'Til I saw that they were gone
And here's a heads up

For those who hang their heads low
Don't break yourself to pieces
Before you even know


Here's a heads up
For blue skies choked with ash

For highways closed
For stocks that crash


Heads up, for those who hang their heads so low

Heads up
