SAW 2009 #25: Downstream by Chris Devine

Enough with the zigging.

Zag.

Also, I know the lyrics are a little ... weird. But they're not so important; it was all about basing a long around a different kind of rhythm and tempo and such than my usual. It was fun.

In the future, none of this will matter,
Tried to make sense, but my thoughts had all been scattered.
Now the future's growing lean, while the past only gets fatter,
And falls down to the floor with a silence-smashing clatter.

And I want to know
How the river knows
Which way to go
Take me downstream now.

In between the thought and looking for the answer,
The moment came in the rhythm of the dancer.
The leader of the band, the dreamer and romancer,
Dispelled the chaos outside, growing like a cancer.

And I want to know
Where the river flows,
Find out what it knows
Take me downstream now.
Take me downstream ...

False presumptions,
Make assumptions,
Never say you're wrong ...
'Sorry'.
