Cecil Otter - String Theory lyrics

[Verse 1: Dessa] I travel with a lungful of music, doesn't weigh a thing Reed's built in, breathe through it every time I sing And I got pockets full of my own hands, head full of back-up plans Temper walks beside me, a gift I guess from my old man History: lines on my face Future: lines on my palm They say heaven's guarded by gates, damnation don't care much who's calling But I don't fall for that line, only one I walk is mine I carry what I can and I'm still makin good time Bones are hollow, that's where I keep marrow This quiver in my lip, that's just where I keep my arrows I fold up my ideas, I pack them neat inside my skull I got this string theory: doesn't work to push, you gotta pull So I'm pulling for me, and I'm pulling for mine And they're easy to read, but you can't trust the signs Eyes blur in the heat, heat curves all the lines Try to keep up, speed up, get your feet up (And match mine) [Hook: Cecil Otter] We'll wait til the dawn And when dawn breaks we're moving on We're raised by the laws But the laws gonna break when we're moving on [Verse 2: SIMS] Gravity I never learned I'm in the air stretch it out spaghetti western I make it glow then let it go, no effort That attachment only kept your flame sequestered I just let it how the ember in my chest burn I wasn't in for the fame or making profit I just came to scrape my name into the cinder blocking Now they're flocking because the feather's same I just burned the oil, toiled, man I fed the flame You better aim before they tame you, boy Tt's a wild world they're coming for your pelt, young boy They're tolling all the bells, Tolstoy It's war and peace, beast came to eat, old boy (oh boy) [Hook: Cecil Otter] We'll wait til the dawn And when dawn breaks we're moving on We're raised by the laws But the laws gonna break when we're moving on [Verse 3: SIMS & Dessa] Gravity is such a pesky thing Makes every weight in sight seem like it's worth measuring Makes every step you take so tentative But if you don't stride with purpose then there's no benefit I know, only on this surface til we float But why wait? I pull for you and throw your hand a rope I know, you can take time or take time by the throat So tell me when it's time to go [Hook: Cecil Otter] We'll wait til the dawn And when dawn breaks we're moving on We're raised by the laws But the laws gonna break when we're moving on
