Lyrics

Daylight Savings

Watch the sunset bleed the day and
soak the sky in red,
and the evening wraps its bandage
around it’s wounded head

Let’s send a day like this to infirmary
Whisper when you want me
Breathe a sigh into the wind, and you can
shout it if you need to get it out and catch my whim
let’s book the first flight
to where you want to go

and a day like this goes down in infamy
there’s no goodbyes,
and I just can’t believe
that we won’t see him
anymore
gone forever
to the void
Butterfly sheds her cocoon
and I don’t know why
but it seemed too soon…

and I sympathize with sorrow for the one I didn’t know
and it’s sad she never found him
and it’s sad he had to go
before the daylight
had faded naturally

And I’m waiting at the harbor as your ship is coming in
and your waving in the distance and you’re sailing in the wind
I clench my eyes tight
these tears don’t wanna go

Daylight Saving me an hour to re-
gain my patience just to wait for you
But I don’t see you anymore
Guess we’re always out the door
But we still have this afternoon
and the setting sun and the fickle moon…

Watch the sunset bleed the day and
soak the night in red, and the
stars appear like brilliant scars to
heal the things I said
let’s send a day like
this to emergency
