lyrics
PAST
Past caring past sharing past believing at all
Past the church we were married which is now a mall
Past the After-Hours we went to after your fall
Past sulking past crying past calling your name
Past the golf course sign: Develop Your Game!
Past the House of Knives and the Fishing Hall of Fame
Past lying past loving past spinning this top
Past the stains on the library steps that look like blood
Past the river and the sculptures made of mud
Time’s a machine and we all got stamped
Time’s a machine and we all got hammered
Past grieving past stealing past the RSA
Where they stroked your breast as you pulled beer
Pass the bucket past participles in my head
Past yearning past clinging past breathing a word
As the Assembly of God all got cured
And we retreated as they went forward
Past returning past reliving past mining the seam
Past the drive-in body-painting with icecream
On your birthday hanging yourself at eighteen
Time’s a machine and we all got stamped
Time’s a machine and we all got hammered.
But what was given, we can reject
And what ruled us then, we can escape
Let's all escape!
