Lyrics

I haven't been sleeping
all that well
my mind is a constant
carousel

where the horses run wild
until the boardwalk ends
each one has a rider
and I think I know them

These faces familiar
with eyes so deep
like craters or novels
or instinct

I tell them my troubles
all my cold conflicts
there are no answers sometimes
there is no fix

so we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
we stand shoulder to shoulder
around the fire
we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
there is no burden to shoulder
alone this time

but my mind keeps on racing
its a speeding car
through wastelands and gardens
wide and far

and the cities all crumble
brick by brick
while I'm stuck on the top floor
watching it give

but we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
we stand shoulder to shoulder
around the fire
we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
there is no burden to shoulder
alone this time

we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
we stand shoulder to shoulder
around the fire
we stand shoulder to shoulder
we stand side by side
there is no burden to shoulder
alone this time
