Gasworks Lyrics
Take your time and leave alright,
You say you've got some life left.
The mountain pass, the better half,
Aren't waiting for the lifeless.
Promise me this
The sea walls will shift
Open the land
All that we are
Left under this
All that we can
I'll see what I wannna see:
Your eyes, looking back at me.
Make way for the slow parade-
Long night and hollow days
Only then can we decide
We've got all that matters.
The longer laid, the hideaway
The daily waking pattern.
Read from the books
We keep in the back
Volumes you lack
Collection complete
From wall to wall
Ceiling to feet
I'll see what I want to see:
Your eyes, looking back at me.
Make way for the slow parade-
Long nights and hollow days.
Giant breeze,
Over sidewalk seas.
Won't you hold your arms around bended knees.
The lion's mane,
The church refrain.
In our later days, we will all be saved.
Giant breeze,
Over sidewalk seas.
Won't you hold your arms around bended knees.
The lion's mane,
The church refrain.
In our later days, we will all be saved.
You say you've got some life left.
The mountain pass, the better half,
Aren't waiting for the lifeless.
The sea walls will shift
Open the land
All that we are
Left under this
All that we can
Your eyes, looking back at me.
Make way for the slow parade-
Long night and hollow days
We've got all that matters.
The longer laid, the hideaway
The daily waking pattern.
We keep in the back
Volumes you lack
Collection complete
From wall to wall
Ceiling to feet
Your eyes, looking back at me.
Make way for the slow parade-
Long nights and hollow days.
Over sidewalk seas.
Won't you hold your arms around bended knees.
The lion's mane,
The church refrain.
In our later days, we will all be saved.
Over sidewalk seas.
Won't you hold your arms around bended knees.
The lion's mane,
The church refrain.
In our later days, we will all be saved.

I don't know why, but I get such a sad vibe from this song while I listen and look at the lyrics.
I feel like it's about two people who love each other, but they're not where they'd like to be in life. And even though they cheer each other up and look on the bright side, their lives simply aren't great. Wanting to read new books when the collection is complete; the feeling of wanting more but not being able is just so sad.
"It's gonna be great, just wait and see" type of thinking. It's too the point where in your later days, when you die, it'll all be better then. and only then.
Just my interpretation. So mellow
