Life is Looking Up Lyrics
Could this be the day I've waited for
When all my hard work doesn't go ignored?
Maybe she was right, the will realize
I can change the world open us their eyes
They know I am more than some eager blood
Not some average bones, I believe in love
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
I will change the world, maybe this is it
I can see it now, all the colors smear
Up and down the page, but the shapes are there
I will build the lamps in the reverie
Then they'll understand this was meant for me
This is my fate
I can almost hear 'em say
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
They know I am more than some eager blood
Not some average bones, I believe in love
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
I will change the world, maybe this is it
I can see it now floating like a dream
Right above my head, perfect symmetry
Lives in harmony, I can see his face
When he sees the lamps, I can hear 'em say
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
Dream with your eyes closed
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones
All the plans pirouette right through my mind become set
The lines become definite, glowing hues fill this vignette
Tall and proud, the lamps will stand built from these two very hands
No one will be able to deny my skill our love for you
Dream with your eyes closed
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones
Let the lamps shine
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
You can't change me
You can't hide me
"The vision of the world had been realized
But the sculpture of the Earth was looked upon by jealous eyes
Ahrima refused to relent, he demanded to be heard
'Let my unique deft hands be known' he asserted
But even this brash avowel was met in return by no mouth full
O simply just smiled
So defeated and galled, Ahrima headed for the darkness
No one seemed to understand
Only the shadows would hearken
He sat in peace but on his shoulder, at rest,
Perched a dinky brownish spider named Barayas"
When all my hard work doesn't go ignored?
Maybe she was right, the will realize
I can change the world open us their eyes
Not some average bones, I believe in love
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
I will change the world, maybe this is it
Up and down the page, but the shapes are there
I will build the lamps in the reverie
Then they'll understand this was meant for me
I can almost hear 'em say
Let em burn so bright
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
Not some average bones, I believe in love
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
I will change the world, maybe this is it
Right above my head, perfect symmetry
Lives in harmony, I can see his face
When he sees the lamps, I can hear 'em say
Let em burn so bright
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let the lamps shine
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones
The lines become definite, glowing hues fill this vignette
Tall and proud, the lamps will stand built from these two very hands
No one will be able to deny my skill our love for you
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones
Open all our eyes
Shower us in light
Let em burn so bright
Set the sky ablaze
Fill the night with paint
Smother all the shade flood it through my blood
Breathe it through my lungs
Give us all your love
You can't hide me
But the sculpture of the Earth was looked upon by jealous eyes

Pretty sure in the chorus he sings "Shower us in light" and not "Shout when i see the light"
Could this be the day I’ve waited for When all my hard work doesn’t go ignored? Maybe she was right, the will realize I can change the world open us their eyes
They know I am more than some eager blood Not some average bones, I believe in love I just want to prove I deserve this gift I will change the world, maybe this is it
I can see it now, all the colors smear Up and down the page, but the shapes are there I will build the lamps in the reverie Then they’ll understand this was meant for me
This is my fate I can almost hear ‘em say
Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Open all our eyes Shower us in light Let the lamps shine Let em burn so bright Set the sky ablaze Fill the night with paint Smother all the shade flood it through my blood Breathe it through my lungs Give us all your love

I deciphered those lyrics out of the notebook page with Thomas Dutton wrote them and posted on the Forgive Druden website
haha, i JUST read the lyrics that were posted on the forgive durdens site, then went straight to this song. Took me a while to make the connection between the lyrics : P
But amazing work, i am simply dying to here the new album, its gonnah be SO amazing.
Thanks for cleaning up the lyrics. Fixed them.
I thought he says "Fill the night with haze." It would rhyme with "set the sky ablaze."
fill the night with haze
No, actually according to the album insert the line is, "Fill the night with paint."
Love the brownish spider reference.
this song is just incredible. loveeee the brownish spider reference and even more funny, the next track has max bemis playing a spider.
spidersong anyone? =]
love this album.
