Man was never meant to fly
That’s why we’re born without wings
But it’s times like these you can’t help but
Marvel in the tragedy
The reminder of finality
When you fall from such great heights
Don’t expect to pick yourself off the ground
When the symbol of hope
Runs like the Doomsday Moon
You’ll believe
Even God can bleed
Sometimes your faith yields no reward
Sometimes you get what you deserve
Man was never meant to fly
There are no shortcuts to Heaven
When you have questions for God
You’ll get no answers in life
Fly high as you like
You still have to die
But death still comes for good and evil alike
I’ve seen it
I’ve lived it
I was there
The symbol of hope
Becomes a symbol of death
And leaves the rest of us alone
Wondering why
Sometimes you need an empty sky
Sometimes you need to see your heroes die
It takes an act of faith
To believe we don’t all deserve
The same fate

This Oakland trio makes spine-prickling, visceral noise with live drumming: a big sound that lives in the throat and heart. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 10, 2018
