A Gift For Fiction

Get Your Life Together

We pounded on the wall endlessly
it's time to set our roots in soil
We're up on our hind legs
on top of the food chain
we're growing everyday

Born through the earth
We will multiply
(We know what we want and we're a multitude,
We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
We're reaching for the sky now
stretching out our limbs
to the birds to the clouds
To the people who cut us down
We're building mountains higher
TODAY! TODAY! TODAY!

We pounded on the wall
When we see inside
you set are roots in soil
I've still got my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes

Born through the earth
We will multiply
I still have my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes

Beautiful lights and images
emit from the ground
We plant our smiles
And our eyes glance to the sky
We feel clear for the very first time
We shed your ill will from our skin
We shed your ill will from our skin
I wonder
We still wonder

(Why are we still here)
We're reaching for the sky now
stretching out our limbs
to the birds to the clouds
TODAY! TODAY! TODAY!
To the people who cut us down
We're building mountains higher
TODAY! TODAY! TODAY!

(We know what we want and we're gonna get it)
Your lives will pass right here
TONIGHT! TONIGHT! TONIGHT!

Oh! my friends we're spinning in space
And no one seems to care and I think that's [bad word] up
It seems as though I've lost it all but
I've still got my eyeballs
Ten fingers and toes
