Making Progress

Right now
We are making progress
We are making dreams come true
Just like we discussed
In our most recent letters
Communiques, and measures
Of memories and treasures
Kept in bricks and mortar
And I won’t last forever
I won’t even try to
I’m just making progress
I don’t know what else to do
It’s just that this could be work for you and me
Right now
We are making progress
Just listen to the bugs
Exploding on the windshield
Or is it just the crackling
Aurora borealis?
Or is it just the tip-toe
Of small things through the tall grass?
Or is it just that this could be work for you and me?
Right now
We are making progress
We are hanging upside down
Inside a vacuum
We are taking round trips
And we don’t even know it
Our hammers fall in silence
Knocking down forest
Exploding all around us
And I’m committing treason
Cause I’m in love with reason
And humans are the nicest
When they fall silent
Reflecting what lies deepest
Aw, you can hear the sea shore
You can see forever
If you keep it all together
And don’t let up the pressure
What good’s a revolution?
A rising and a setting sun
A trip around the bright one
Lets you off where you started from
Following a straight line
Going through a tight wind
I’m in love with sunshine
I’m in love with human kind
Right now…
