Beast on Beast

When you go off into the air
 You can't help but become
 A floating poem
 A concept tangled up
 In some kind of star stuff
 A hello from a pair of lungs
 I left Oregon on a cloud of hope
 That once we were gone
 The time would move so slow
 Life would be long
 Enough to get to know
 How to get on
 But the seams are worn with threats to open up
 I was never made of stuff tough enough
 I'm just beast on beast stacked up to the sky
 With the bottom ones sinking into the mire
 You'll find a song for everybody
 I have ever touched
 But stones unturned
 Cover up how a blood river runs
 Into some far and blurred beyond
 But the seams are worn with threats to open up
 I was never made of stuff tough enough
 I'm just beast on beast stacked up to the sky
 With the bottom ones sinking into the mire
