Waxwing Songtext
von Flip Rushmore

I′ve been wondering, where'd all of the time go
Cuz the ocean is rising to meet
Me the beast, me the boss, me the Bezos
Got a bottle rocket under my sleeve
Does the sting subside with the roses
Sweet osmosis
With the trees
Then I′ll cut them down
And ship them 'round
Cuz that money doesn't grow for free


You should know
The moment your eyes close
You′ll be alone
It′s your first time 'round
And it shows
A trillion reasons
A trillion reasons
I could keep up the lie
I love you baby
You′re as hot as it gets
And you might just burn alive

So the man dug it up from the mountain
And used it all to power the rail
And it doubled the size of the fountain
As the corporate fleets set sail
Who am I to upset the agenda
This is centuries of human debris
Reduce, reuse, recite these words
If you've got the money
Then you′re coming with me


You should know
The moment your eyes close
You'll be alone
It′s your first time 'round
And it shows
A trillion reasons
A trillion reasons
I could keep up the lie
I love you baby
You're as hot as it gets
And you might just burn alive

I wish that I could fly
Too close to the sun
So it could melt my wings
I wish that I could fly
Too close to the sun
So it could melt my wings
I wish that I could fly
Too close to the sun
So it could melt my wings
So I′d feel
I′d feel anything at all
And you can burn me Claire Elise
Claire Elise
Claire Elise, Claire Elise
And you can burn me Claire Elise
Claire Elise
Claire Elise, Claire Elise
