Mythmakers - On the Last Day

On the last day, let loose the cannonade
Let lie the riptides that pull us apart
Tear down the stockyards
Hang up the string lights
Watch the stars as they swirl up above

Why can I not steel
My heart not to feel things I don't like?
Why can I not teach
My mouth not to preach when there's nothing but air?
Growing up, filling in, you know how this ends
Growing up, growing cold, so it goes

On the last night, watch as the satellites
Unspool and seek out the static beyond
Retrieve the lost words
Breathe as the frost forms
Sink in your feet like a fir in the earth

Why can I not steel
My heart not to feel things I don't like?
Why can I not teach
My mouth not to preach when there's nothing but air?
Growing up, filling in, you know how this ends
Growing up, growing cold, so it goes
Growing up, filling in, you know how this ends
Growing up, growing cold, so it goes
Growing up, filling in, you know how this ends
Growing up, growing cold, so it goes
