Passing Through (feat. Kaya Thomas-Dyke)

Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day I've been searching the system for a way out Thirsty for the risk and not the payout It's murky in the midst of all the mayhem, and though I may doubt I say now, confining my thoughts within the playpen As they play out, I swear I smell a stray scent A glimmer of alternative arrangement Without the thrill of conversation Run of the mill intoxication Suddenly still, and filled with inspiration Without calamity to kill the concentration Infect my sanity with songs of sanitation Every day I give the sun a salutation For warming up the atmosphere And clearing up the mayhem in my manic machinations And as the battle with the rain starts to fade out The panic and the pain dissipate And the cattle that have strayed make their way back home And the rattle that the babe threw Reappears to live another day too Though the tears keep slippin' on away It's a tickle and a chuckle for the blame And though the course and the seasons change The cause and the reasons remain Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day In the land of unwashed and unloved Misguided, mismatched and mystery mishaps Mr. and Mrs. become one Sitting in the midst of the lump sum They fidget and twist to get undone Wishing for a twinkle in the humdrum A sprinkle of delight on their slither of extraordinary pie Opportunity to wriggle from the frying pan, and jump clear of the fire So with affinity and fortune on their side They leap across the cavernous divide Ignoring all cautionary tales from the tribe And taking to the water with the ebbing of the tide The wind in their sails The horizon in their sights and planets all aligned And with their minds no longer so confined They find themselves adrift in an ocean of divine light Dreams come to life as they motion through the limelight And as they're floating through the timeline Scenes of their twilight flicker in the firelight Giving them a glimpse into the far flung future of their lifetime together Giving them a lifeline forever Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day Only passing through Never meant to stay In the search for something new Might be back one day Only passing through Might be back one day
