LATE SUMMER STORM (MS3)



FROM "MAINLAND STATIC" (2014)





If you think it’s too cold in here

That’s a point you could make

But for all the open arms

That pull us close, that give when we take

That help us bend as we head for a break

Still, if you think it’s too cold in here

That’s a point you could make


Do you think it’s too bright in here?

I would guess that you might

Even so, you’ll want to know

What can stand up to the harsh daylight

Out from the shadows pulled into plain sight

Still, do you think it’s too bright in here?

I would guess that you might


It’s a furious world, broken down and maligned

Where the ones who shout the loudest

Are the first to change their minds

Here you are with the calm of a late summer storm

Got your own static to filter

Your own magic to perform


If you think it’s too loud in here

I’m inclined to agree

Though you have to find your voice

And rise above the disharmony

Offer some hope and some humility

Still, if you think it’s too loud in here

I’m inclined to agree
