lyrics

Lucky day
Running Astray
Around every bullet end
By every outpost and bay
Final click
And soon I’ll make it
After dark it’s loud
As the sonic streams unconscious
Lucky day
I get to leave my world
And head out to enemy lands
And my flag will unfurl
Led out by trumpet
And horse back carrier angels
Calling muses from the backs of fables
And generals blow out signals of joy
Lucky Day
Don’t I know it?
As waters streams the lines
To the enemy’s hive
And things made quick
As musically I am rushed
By the quivering stop
Of one thousand drops
Singing chorus
Of a gleaming ballad
To honor the legends
Of armor clad station clouds
Lucky day
Passing each fray
Coming closer in every way
To where the lights goes out in my brain
Lucky Day
No stopping
Bend the decay
Into something ok
Prove you’re running
Your steam engine war machines
Blasting down enemies
Pulling apart armories
And some day
Your coffin will split open
To show you rugged face
And all the things
Passing light
Filling my plights
Someday an angel will pick me up
And carry my war to the other end of the coast
No stopping
Carry on
Let it rain over every orifice
And thunder over every sacrifice
Lucky day
I’ve left my world
I am greeted by an arid love
But some day
You’ll look down
And see the blood-spattered ground
And wonder about your ways
Mountain arms
Swift me up
It’s time I leave the sands
It’s time I make amends
