Makeshift Future Songtext
von Decoration Day

This twinkle speculates
Whether the organ is worthy
Or if the hourglass is more
Lest it musters a makeshift future

The hourglass stands tall
Sustained by sand like a mountain
Or withered slowly like a shore
Shepherd the ocean a little closer

Tectonic future calls
Bringing our feet to Victoria
With nothing but a protocol
To feed the dying population


Hypothetically we′d build a home in this city
Theoretically it'd vanish in a year
Hypothetically we′d have the sea all to ourselves
Theoretically you'd be the perfect company

Our bodies congregate
Rummaging through every layer
Through every unseen earthly fate
We're only in a makeshift future

I′d like a cradle song
Would you be so kind to offer
This twinkle will not last so long
Sound don′t travel below water

Hypothetically we'd build a home in this city
Theoretically it′d vanish in a year
Hypothetically we'd have the sea all to ourselves
Theoretically you′d be the perfect company
