Neon Beyond - Hey Rosetta!

Baby in the basket

I saw you reaching out your hand

You were grasping at the wind

I knew exactly what you meant

I was sitting on the last train it was dragging

Me home to all of that mess

And pulled over the tracks

Sitting still felt more like falling back

And out come the hands

Out comes the rug from underneath

And everything seems so real

Til you’re waking up here at the wheel

After all you’ve given up

Every crumb they took from your tongue

After all your bitter luck

You’re done.

you’re saying 'enough is enough'

I know it’s a hard world

We’re given to cling to the easier path

But this is a wrong turn

Feeling that fear is the only way past

So do not be hemmed in

Do not by dollar, nor doctrine, nor snow, no

Don’t think of small things

Turn your eye to the neon beyond

No after all you’ve given up

Every crumb they took from your tongue

After all your bitter luck

All your silently swallowing’s done

After all you’ve given up

All your drowned and your runaway sons

Now you ought to be speaking up

Saying 'enough is enough' but is 'enough is enough' enough?

Find the sapling

Sand it smooth

Sharpen the stone edge

Feather the grooves

Make it sure, make it true.

before you let it loose

Feel the moment

See the moves

Calm and focused

As you notch the wood

You put everything in. then you let go of it

All that you did, just let go of it

Yeah that’s how it is, you let go of it

We were looking back

We were looking down

But we’re looking up

We’re looking out now!

Look at us!

looking up!
