Lyrics

Boo-lah... sah boo-lah...
We ran on the sand with no shoes on our feet
Sharing one soda, so loud on the street
But paths drifted wide as the years rolled away
Too busy surviving to talk through the day.
Did distance get wide, or did we just get tired?
We say we are busy, our youth has expired.
Do we gather only in our black suits?
To look at the dirt and remember our roots?
Under palm trees we cry for the dead,
Rejoining the circle where final tears are shed.
Is death the only key that brings us home?
Look at the clock, man, we're dying alone,
Trading a lifetime for texts on a phone.
Got grey in our hair and a weight in our chest,
Putting a mortgage ahead of the rest.
We build up our castles, we lock up our time,
Chasing a dollar, forgetting the chime
Of the laughter we shared when the future was bright.
Now I'm booking a flight in the middle of night,
Not to toast to your life, not to drink to your name,
But to stand in the rain with our sorrow and shame.
Did distance get wide, or did we just get tired?
We say we are busy, our youth has expired.
Do we gather only in our black suits?
To look at the dirt and remember our roots?
Under palm trees we cry for the dead,
Rejoining the circle where final tears are shed.
Is death the only key that brings us home?
Vee-nah-kah! Sah moh-theh!
The thread didn't snap, it just stretched out too far!
We forgot who we were, we forgot where we are!
Don't wait for the dirt to remember the love!
Do we gather only in our black suits?
To look at the dirt and remember our roots?
Under palm trees we cry for the dead,
Rejoining the circle where final tears are shed.
Is death the only key that brings us home?
Don't wait for the stone.
Call them on the phone.
Vee-nah-kah... Vee-nah-kah...
Sah moh-theh... sah moh-theh...
