Future Reflections

And there were future reflections
 On the face and the hands
 On a green colored island
 On a primitive man
 It was the future reflected
 It felt familiar but new
 A street was missing a building
 The kids had something to do
 There was a feeling the spirit was leaving
 Red like a marker
 So my tribe, with my knife
 Cut the heart from a lonely life
 ♪
 I saw patterns on floorboards
 Deep in the dust was a leader
 Someone was walking on floorboards
 Turned them from oak to cedar
 He can assess the situation
 I wrapped a string around my finger
 Into the forest with the young ones
 I don't expect to be a winner
 But as long as you feel it
 I'm a believer
 My heart is phosphor
 Sea rolls and death tolls
 Break the surface don't break my bones
 Off of the trail and off of your hands and
 Onto a new plan
 Is the cost to stay lost
 Forever in an empty skin
 Pale and thin
 If it's good, or if it's fortune, I can't tell
 But pieces come together for some reason just as well
 Their guns couldn't see us
 There's a sea outside my door
 And one day I'll appreciate
 The rush of blood and the washed out beat of the shore
 And remember what it felt like
 ♪
 To be alone
 Sitting in the sunlight
 ♪
 All alone
