Lyrics!
January White
So let's press undo
Rearrange the old and call it new
January white
Every calendar is playing the same old trick
A year will disappear replaced with counterfeit
But we'll never really mind
Cause if nothing else we're given a little time
To change the game a chance to redefine
Everything we are
In our January white
This year is a sealed envelope
A culmination of hopes
The lottery result that we've been crossing our fingers for
We could paint our walls a lighter shade of blue
Or we could pack our bags and change the entire view
To January white
If nothing else we're given a little time
To change the heart in which we change our minds
Our hourglass turn
This year is a sealed envelope
With apprehensive hope
We brace for anything
I swear I understand that nothing changes that
The past will be the past
But the future is brighter than any flasback
Well we could let our guards down a little easier this time
We could trust that when there's joy, there's nothing dark behind
In spite of history
Hope is January white
This year we're starting over again
Letter openers in hand
A chance to take a chanceear I understand the past will be the past
And nothing changes that
But the future is brighter than any flashback
Wires
Carefully cut the wire and wait
Life is a series of narrow escapes
A chain reaction
A loose thread that we must pull
The birth of religion
In the challenge unknown
But all desperation leads to a fork in the road
We live for understanding
Or for control
So very carefully we'll cut the wire and wait
With one eye closed
We'll draw back
Catch our breath and let go
Time is the string in between
The arrow and the bow
If there's one thing we've learned
As our pulse returns
Timing is everything
If life is a series of narrow escapes
We're shifting our weight
In this tightrope ballet
We're down to the wire
