In Transit

Sun is up
People are in transit
Got weighty loads
From over-packed baggage
A heart full of woe
Our minds try to manage
There's a lot to do
According to what the plan is

The wily and innocent
and the shell game shuffle
The push and shove
Of mind and muscle
The buck oughta to stop here
The train no longer does
The old paths not as clear
As we once thought it was

CHORUS
We rush around this planet
Can’t see the world with each other’s eyes
Don’t seem to realize
The meteor’s coming
The meteor is ……coming
Meteor’s coming
It’s in transit

A war over there
Always a war somewhere
They say nobody wants a war
But it's always in the air
Like smoke in the woods
Blood and oil on the beach
First them versus they
Then you versus me

SWe rush around this planet
Can’t see the world with each other’s eyes
Don’t seem to realize
The meteor’s coming
The meteor is ……coming
Meteor’s coming
It’s in transit

BRIDGE
They shot a DART at an asteroid
Try to change it’s path with bruteforce
But it spawned a thousand satellites
Scattered wide along the same course
Less dangerous by mass
But moving just as fast
…The meteor’s coming…

The sun is up
With a burning passion
The world's corrupt
We're all a little tired of that shit
But it's another day
Working or not
We've got to make our way
With whatever's left we've got...
