Standard (EADGBE)

So we drive at the fate of this deep phoenix sky

With it's contents that keep me alive

Incessantly breathing through the night

Till we crash with the white caps that ride on our backs

Breaking down on the sand of this western coast

Where I never once thought we would stand

But here we are now

Riding currents that taste of a new town

Feeling high as the night's winding down

And now all I can see are white stars they span forever

As I lay by a streetlight not a word I could possibly say

To explain my intrigue by how emphatic we are just to be,

just to be

Now we run facing out at the southwestern sun

So content to be all so undone

Cause here in these moments we have won

And I'm sure that I've imagined these sites

But I forget why I was never enticed to go out and try

But tonight dream becomes life

Cause here we are now

Riding currents they taste of a new town

We're so high as the night's winding down

Just a spot on the map of this land it spans forever

As I lay by a streetlight not a word I could possibly say

To explain my intrigue by how emphatic we are just to be

And I wont take a minute for granted

I wont waste another word

These streets I would kill to be lost in

I lay by a streetlight as the summer air soaks in my lungs

Cause I lay by a streetlight

How impressive are we just to live and breathe in this world

And how lucky am I to be so alive in this world

Oh how precious are we just to simply be in this world
