about

This is a song about dealing with feelings of futility, and deciding not to kill yourself.

lyrics

We walked along the through the heat and muck, with a drooping cardboard sign in my hand
There for the third time this month but nothing gained from our previous stands
Times like that I just want to cut my losses and run
This uphill push, this job, this job that's never done.

(So)
Sit back and smile
Nod to the shadows
One day we'll meet,
But now it sure ain't time to go

I sat and read on a sunny afternoon about the failures of history
You’d think we’d take the lessons learned and get down to it quickly
Nah

(So)
Sit back and smile
Nod to the shadows
One day we'll meet,
But now it sure ain't time to go

I sat and looked from the top of the hill, and felt I saw all creation
And I knew that little pull down the cliffs to desolation (yeah...)
But we’ve all got tales to tell, and we’ve all got love to give,
-- all building up a dense collage of dirt and sunshine.
Man, we keep on pushing, when we know we have to fall
Voices raised above the night’s sweet call.

Oh so sweet
Oh so sweet
It's oh so sweet
It's oh so sweet
It's oh so sweet
Oh so sweet in the nighttime
It's oh so sweet
It's oh so sweet
Oh so sweet in the nighttime

Oh so sweet
Oh so sweet
Oh so sweet in the nighttime
Oh so sweet
Oh so sweet
Oh so sweet in the nighttime

Sit back and smile
Nod to the shadows
One day we'll meet,
But now it sure ain't time to go
