Yesterday’s Outsider Songtext
von Chasing Zeniths

Hold the line?
Whatever you say
Emergent, let lie
Frames of life you aren′t missing yet

Searchlights, alone together
Distant astride
Show me just so I won't forget

It′s always a different story
Sets the needle to us
Hand of static at your door
Reasons settle on the cusp
Though ever we turn

So am I a broken record?
Or just a little misread?
Yearning for the song to wake again
Sore-eyed, tantalizing
Patient, falling


Did you walk inside the dreams I had
But didn't know who else was dreaming?
Did you rage against the dawn's first light
But didn′t know what you were fighting for?
Now and then, between the words I′m caged
As yesterday's outsider waves

Open up
Listen closer
Trust the outcome in vain
Relive a new disaster

All I′ve known, and all I feel
Is on the long way back
Disparity won't falter

Did you walk inside the dreams I had
But didn′t know who else was dreaming?
Did you rage against the dawn's first light
But didn′t know what you were fighting for?
Now and then, between the words I'm caged
As yesterday's outsider waves

Until these eyes go blind
In spite of it all
Once-invariant reluctance
Won′t let us go


One day we all must find
The price of home
What lies abandoned
Unburdens all we might have known

(Fall proud, yesterday′s outsider)
